Christmas Cheese Selection
£49.00
Christmas just isn't Christmas without an exceptional cheese board, and at Little Mouse we've spent a long time curating the perfect one to wow the family with.
Available in options of three (approx 700grams) or five cheeses (approx 1.2kg), with additional options like adding a 75cl bottle of Niepoort Tawny Port and/or our specially made chutneys.
Our three cheese selection is Baron Bigod, Isle of Mull Cheddar, and Colston Bassett Stilton. With five cheeses you'll also get a very specially aged Sparkenhoe Red Leicester and Ashcombe. If you select 'no blue', we will swap your blue for Cornish Yarg
This year we also have a vegetarian selection of Gert Lush, Cornish Yarg, and Cropwell Bishop Stilton, with Templegall and Stinking Bishop included in the five cheese selection.
About the cheeses
Baron Bigod (approx 250grams) - on five and three cheese regular selections
The king of British brie! Decadence personified with a deep, rich flavour from their use of Montbeliarde Cow's milk
Isle of Mull Cheddar (approx 190grams) - on five and three cheese regular selections
A spectacular Scottish cheddar. Lathered in lard, you get an astounding butteriness with just the right amount of bite
Colston Bassett Stilton (approx 250grams) - on five and three cheese regular and vegetarian selections
Our absolutely favourite Stilton. Supremely fruited with a good amount of heat. Well-balanced and perfect at Christmas. The vegetarian selection will have a veggie version of this traditional cheese.
Sparkenhoe Red Leicester (approx 250grams) - on five cheese regular selections
Our 'desert island cheese', a phenomenally complex British territorial, with notes of caramel and butterscotch, beef broth, and hazelnuts
Ashcombe (approx 220grams)- on five cheese regular selection
Britain's answer to Morbier. With a layer of ash running through it, this washed rind cheese has hoovered up awards sinced its birth in 2020
Gert Lush (250grams) - on five and three cheese vegetarian selections
The relative newcomer to the cheese scene. A brie/camembert hybrid that is rich and unctuous, packing a huge amount of flavour
Cornish Yarg (approx 200grams) - on five and three cheese vegetarian selections and on 'no blue' selections
Nettle-wrapped young hard cheese from Cornwall. Seriously sessionable (perfect at Christmas time!) with citrus notes
Stinking Bishop (approx 225grams) - on five cheese vegetarian selections
The granddaddy of British stank! Washed in perry, this soft washed cheese has a delicate paste with rich butteriness - more pleasurable than the name suggests
Spenwood (approx 250grams) - on five cheese vegetarian selection
The British Pecorino! Rated the eighth best cheese on Earth at the World Cheese Awards. Rich and Earthy, with a long lasting finish
