Galet D’Albatre – Goats Cheese
Origin: Normandy, France Price: £4.65 per pebble What is it? A goats cheese that is mild and extremely fluffy with a sour edge What is in a name? The cheesemonger that furnished us with this beautiful, delicious cheese gave it a half-translated name of ‘le pebble normande’. ‘Albatre’ does exist in English (a pale, soft stone), presumably alluding to the surprisingly light and fluffy centre of this cheese. Guess he thinks the English aren’t as cultured as the French…so we’re going to call it Goaty McGoatface. cheese review The Cheese’s…
Summer Cheeseboard
Which cheese should you put on your cheese board? It’s almost the end of August, the height of British Summer Time, the sun is very occasionally popping its head out from the clouds and the odd wild blackberry is beginning to appear. Temperatures are really trying to rise but still only stretching to about 25 degrees on a good day. Yet English enthusiasm never wains, and with the same stoicism we supported Eddie the Eagle with in 1998, we flock to the beaches to lessen the pale glow and invite…
Brillat Savarin
Origin: Ile-de-France region of la belle France We Paid: £2.90/100g from a gorgeous little cheese shop called La Cave à Fromage in Hove. Click here to visit. What is it? A cheese that’s soft and ridiculously creamy, and hits the bulls-eye flavour wise, (maybe a little too hard). Une petite french histoire: Allow us to introduce Brillat Savarin…the man, the myth, the legend, gastronome extraordinaire, short on hair (there’s not a lot there), cheese-munching, woman loving (probably) JEAN-ANTHELME BRILLAT SAVARIN. Often touted as the first foodie, Savarin achieved what us mere mortals can only dream…
Homemade Burrata
Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm Winston Churchill Turns out, cows don’t just poop out cheese. We recently acquired a rather fantasmical piece of equipment which seemed like it would open up a world of possibilities and launch Incredibrie Cheesy in a thrilling new direction. Hopefully not the same direction as One Direction (RIP). We’ll give you a clue, it’s more exciting than a cheese grater, even more exciting than a cheese slice, EVEN more exciting than a personalised cheese knife… Yes, you guessed it,…
Mont D’Or
Origin: Franche-Comte region of la gaie France We Paid: Rien, but it cost out lovely friend Livi £10 (per rond) Quick Description: A stinky, smelly stunner, great for dipping bread in General Info: This one came from Borough Market in London. A lovely fromagier there once told us that the Mont d’Or season is fleeting. Production begins in August and runs through to April, but the majority are made mid-winter with raw milk (unpasteurised) when the cow’s milk is ideal for soft and squishy cheeses. We got ours on April 1st…

Wensleydale
We’ve gathered our favourite Wensleydales from the factory. They all come from North Yorkshire! Hawes to be precise, down some rainy country lanes, which is the only place allowed to call their cheese Wensleydale. Special Reserve Yorkshire Wensleydale We paid: £1.14 per 100g Brief description: A mature Wensleydale Smell: ‘It smells like a milky baby’ – Isobel Watson, 2016. I don’t know what babies she’s been smelling, but it doesn’t smell very mature (it’s been ageing for just over a month – Elle suggested ‘month-old milk’ for the brief description…). It’s not…
