Truly a cheese that captures the terroir of where it is made in Cumbria, St James is made on a very small scale by Martin Gott on Holker Farm who makes his own starter cultures. The cheeses are washed individually and turned in brine three times a week which gives its distinctive orange-yellow rind. The resulting flavours are deep and complex, and quite simply, blow us away. Well done Gott

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!

Meet the Maker

After training with a host of dairy royalty including Mary Holbrook, Martin Gott established St James in 2006. On his Cumbria farm, Martin produces raw milk sheep cheese from his herd of Laucane ewes with homemade starter culture which leads to fantastic variation.
