The perfect Christmas cheeseboard

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"I received a cheeseboard from my daughter for mothers day and I had to write to you to say it is one of the best presents I have ever had. Superb ethos described in your accompanying booklet...not only that but the cheese is bloody brilliant. SO tasty. Perfect cheese portions as well. Not too large so some of it ends up going in the compost but enough for a really good cheese feast. Thanks so much, you guys are brilliant"

Hello, is it cheese you're looking for? Look no further than Lionel. He’s a balanced selection of our all-time favourites alongside equally exciting, but lesser-known, beauties. We’ve hand picked the best seasonal cheeses, then made sure they have been matured to perfection before freshly cutting, wrapping and packing.* This really is cheese without compromise and you know you’ll be receiving over half a kilogram of gold standard yellow stuff.

With The Lionel, you’ll always receive around 800g of cheese - that’s enough for 4 people to enjoy as a cheese fest or up to 8 responsible adults if you're look for a little taster.

You'll also receive our tasting notes to guide you through the selection as well as a scorecard to rate and make notes.

Delivery is FREE and it 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 festive cheesegeek delivery.

Delivery Information Close Icon for Delivery Drawer

During checkout, you will be able to select your preferred delivery date. This is great if you're buying as a gift or are organising your cheese in advance. The cheese will be packed in chilled, insulated boxes (that look great!) and will always be prepared on the day it is dispatched. A few other handy pointers:

- We use DHL nationwide and Packfleet within the M25

- Please use the delivery date you have selected as a guide rather than a guarantee.

- Your cheese will arrive in the best condition. It will have been prepared freshly and will not have been with our courier beyond our maximum of 48hrs

- You will receive delivery notifications for when your order is dispatched that mean you can track when it’s in transit

If you aren’t in for your delivery, this won’t matter. Our couriers will leave your cheese in you designated safe place in our climate controlled packaging.

We’re a small business working with an (incredible) perishable product. For advice on delivery or any cheesy questions, get in touch via the live chat or on hello@thecheesegeek.com

What's inside?

cheesegeek Yorkshire Pecorino

Yorkshire Pecorino

Approx 200g

The Italian beauty is everything you'd want in a young cheese, smooth, yoghurty and sweet. Soft and yielding in texture it has a thin undulating rind, it has a perfect symphony of textures with a hint of lingering minerality from the ash-rolled rind.

The Cheese Geek Pitchfork Cheddar

Pitchfork

Approx 200g

Pitchfork has incredible complexity and balance, one of the trademarks of a great cheddar. You'll find a farmy-like tang, a buttery undercoat with the hallmark of a proper, Clothbound cheddar- a crumbly, earthy breakdown in the mouth. There really is none of that supple rubbery chewiness you get with a supermarket cheddar. No wonder Pitchfork won 4th best cheese in the World in 2020, and Best British cheese!

Washington

200g

A testament to British cheesemaking, and a nod to continental cheesemaking, this is a washed rind cheese destined for great things. When slightly younger, the flavours are fresher and crisper, with just a hint of fruitiness. Ripened on, it develops deep, savoury, meaty flavour, a bit like those famous continental pongers like Epoisses. However, the cider wash brings an astonishing fermented fruity funk, balancing the savoury flavours perfectly, all playing out amidst the most tantalising creamy, decadent, luxurious texture. A modern take on history, and a cheese for the ages.

cheesegeek Cashel Blue

Cashel Blue

Approx 200g

This is the perfect blue cheese for those who want complexity but not the sharp saltiness, minerality or general strength of a Stilton or bolder blue cheese. It is more soft-honey than nutty, and has little salty sharpness with almost no minerality to speak of compared to a Barkham Blue for example. The finish is super clean with just a hint of saltiness at the end. What it all adds up to, is a scenario where some of the more subtle flavours aren't scared to come out and say hi... honey, some hazelnut and straight up creamy goodness.
