Cornish Yarg wrapped in nettles
Second bite of the Yarg Cherry this time a bit more mature and wrapped in nettles rather than with wild garlic. This was still surprisingly ok once the mould was cut away!

Day 295
Crooner Scrumpy and crunchy Apple cheddar
Very tasty blended cheese, the apple is steeped in Westons old Rosie for 24hrs before mixing with the cheddar. I think you would like this Struan!
Day 294
Wrekin Blue
Super blue cheese from Shropshire quite tangy at first but delicious when melted across some sirloin steak.
Day 293
Bleu des Causses
Blue cows milk cheese from the Gorge du Tarn in France. Aged in the Limestone caves for 3-6 months. Looks like it might be a bit acidic but turns out quite creamy, very tasty cheese.
Day 292
Spenwood
Ewes milk cheese from the Cotswolds. Based on a Pecorino style, it is hard and quite caramely.
Day 291
Celtic Promise
Unpasteurised cows milk cheese from Caws in the Teifi valley in Wales. It is rich and creamy, sitting well with my Asda Islay malt.
Day 290
Fosse way Fleece
Cheeps cheese made in Somerset by Phil Rainbow. Pearly white hard cheese with a distinctive ewes milk flavour, let it warm up and it softens slightly and improves.
Day 289
Vignotte
I had forgotten just how beautifully creamy this cheese is, some years ago I was a little put off to find maggots in a block, and have not had it since! It really is lovely, one of the creamiest cheeses you are likely to find.
Day 288
Monkland
Straight forward cheese, crumbly acidic perfect on a sandwich with home grown tomatoes. Made in Herefordshire at Monkland cheese dairy.
Day 287
Valdeon Picos Blue
This is that sharp tangy pungent sort of cheese which I am never sure I like so the whisky is poured before tasting! Upon tasting it is not quite as strong as I thought. But still not a favourite.
