Montgomery's Cheddar is a truly traditional Somerset cheddar that is handmade by James Montgomery and made from the unpasteurised milk from his own Friesian herd. He uses fresh, untreated milk to make the cheese 7 days a week, meaning the milk is at optimum freshness. Following this an old peg mill is used (which is quite unusual now), to create the unique texture and appearance of the Montgomery’s Cheddar. It is matured for 12 months on wooden shelves and wrapped in a muslin cloth, which lends to its deep nutty flavour profile, grassy aromas and full lingering flavour from the slightly crumbly texture. A staple on any cheeseboard!
Delivery is not only free, and not only at a set day of your choosing, but also comes in a climate control box (the only in the industry) that comes with a 48 hour freshness guarantee.
If that wasn't enough, we also add an insert that will talk you through the info on the cheeses, tasting notes and a scorecard to help you make the very most of your cheesegeek delivery!
