Shepherds Purse Harrogate Blue
Mild and creamy, quite soft, but a little bit grainy. The blueness builds as you eat more, becoming quite pungent.

Day 64
Tintern
Smooth and creamy with green bits to match it’s wax, going to have to google it to find out what it has in it.
Chives and shallots in a blended mature cheddar. Nice but not earth shattering. Yet it is really creamy.
Day 63
Harlech
Harlech is infused with horseradish and parsley! Made by the Welsh cheese company. I had this for lunch just as a sandwich, it would have been better with some rare beef, or maybe as a topping for a burger. You definitely notice the horseradish, but it is not too in your face. Interesting.
Day 61
Truckle Bros Smokey Cheddar
Ok
Day 60
Cornish Yarg
Cheese wrapped in Wild Garlic leaves. Pleasantly cheesey.
Day 59
Barbers 1833 Cheddar
Smooth tasty cheddar from Somerset not too mature but crumbly and creamy at the same time, clever.
Day 58
Old Amsterdam
My Dad’s funeral today, so a bit sad. But cheese is now out on the table, and as my Dad liked a bit of Edam, the Old Amsterdam seemed appropriate, nice and tangy with a fruity finish.
Day 57
Seriously spreadable cheese
Ok so not the most highbrow cheese on the list so far, but spread on some Brook House Inn granary bread infused with Cumin, coriander and apricot it was very pleasant.
Day 56
Provolone Picante
Semi hard cheese from Italy, a hint of Parmesan, but not as hard or dry. Quite sharp, not in a bad way, would be good on pizza.
Day 55
Fetoliva
Found a lovely little deli in Whitehaven with a selection of cheeses. Today’s cheese is a sheep and goat milk feta infused with olives and jalapeños, the cheese is so creamy, could just spread it on toast, but made a great Greek salad for lunch.
