MONS CAMEMBERT AU CALVADOS
Normandy, France | Pasteurised Cow's Milk | Soft-Ripened, Calvados-Washed Selected by Mons Affineurs
Washing the rind in Calvados adds a subtle layer of sweet, orchard-fruit warmth to an already complex cheese. You still get that classic Camembert character - bloomy rind, flowing ivory paste, mushroom and damp earth - but with a fragrant, apple-inflected finish that ties it back to the landscape it comes from.
-

LA TUR
Bosia, Piedmont, Italy | Pasteurised Cow, Goat and Ewe's Milk | Soft Ripened
Bosia, Piedmont. Three milks in one small round: cow, goat and ewe. Soufflé-light beneath the wrinkled rind, turning to warm, spoonable cream at the centre.

-

Pont-l'Évêque AOP

-

Rosso di Langa

Appleby's Cheshire
Style: Hard, Cloth-bound
Origin: Hawkstone Abbey Farm, North Shropshire, England
Milk Type: Raw CowAppleby's is the last exclusively raw milk Cheshire, crafted on the salt plains where Cheshire marshes infuse the milk with unique saline minerals. Hand-made using unpasteurised morning and evening milk from Paul Appleby's Friesian herd, the cheese develops its distinctive crumbly texture through traditional cutting, blocking, and milling before being cloth-bound and aged for six weeks to six months. Rich mineral flavours emerge upfront with juicy acidity and that signature pale orange hue from natural annatto.
-

Marcel Petit Comte
France, Franche-Comté | Raw Montbéliarde Cow's Milk | Hard, Alpine
French alpine masterpiece ages 24+ months. Crystalline texture releases roasted hazelnut, caramel, deep umami. Jar tradition demands raw Montbeliarde milk and patience.

MONS CHÈVRE WITH ESPELETTE
France | Pasteurised Goat's Milk
Piment d'Espelette carries PDO status and is grown in just ten Basque communes along the French side of the Pyrenees. It's a mild chilli, the heat gentle, half that of a jalapeño, but the character is what matters: sweet, slightly smoky, with a fruity brightness that's entirely its own. Laid across a creamy Mons-selected chèvre, it's a cheese that starts soft and warm and stays with you through the finish.
-

CHABICHOU
Milk: Goat (pasteurised) | Origin: Poitou-Charentes, France | AOC/AOP
AOC protected since 1990 and PDO recognised since 1996, Chabichou du Poitou can only be produced within the limestone-rich Haut Poitou. Unusually, it is the only protected soft goat cheese whose PDO explicitly permits pasteurised milk production, meaning the version we stock carries its full designation rather than an approximation.
The shape is a small truncated cylinder, the rind delicately wrinkled by Geotrichum candidum and entirely edible. Inside: bright white, firm and yielding. Lemon zest and deep mineral notes define the flavour, with a creamline just under the rind that gives way to something richer and nuttier as the cheese matures.
-

Langres AOP
Champagne, France
Rich and tangy, with a dense, creamy core that turns silken beneath the rind. Yeasty, brioche-like aromatics, cultured cream and a savoury, saline edge. Pour Champagne into the fontaine and thank us later.
