Phew, what a list! I was lucky enough to be sent a selection of their cheeses, which are now taking up a good proportion of my fridge.
As good as it was, I wasn't able to convert blue cheese hating Graham, but the good news is Cooper enjoyed it, so I at least I have someone to share my blue cheese with.
