SOFT CHEESES
Soft white cheeses are high in moisture and are covered in a penicillin mould which acts as a coating and
helps break down the curds, adding to the overall mature texture and flavour
These cheeses only mature for a few weeks and are usually luscious and creamy with subtle grassy flavours.
BOWS BRIE
The thick white rind contrasts with the deep buttery full flavoured paste which can become very oooozy! Another great local cheese made by The Cheese Makers od Canterbury up the road in Dargate.

Small and deep, staying quite firm and ripening to a strong savoury Brie. A Kent classic.

SUSSEX CAMEMBERT
This Sussex cheese has a very unusual rippled white rind and a herby, buttery flavour. Can become very potent! Made by the fabulous cheese boys (Nick and Arthur) at Alsop & Walker.

LORD LONDON
Brilliant!! A white peaked dome shape - this is pretty unique in the British cheese world. Light, lactic and lemony - you can get cravings for a cheese like this! It stays quite firm in texture but this adds to its character. Nick and Arthur have transported this Spanish recipe brilliantly to Sussex.

COLLEGE WHITE BRIE
Distinctive, peaty and earthy - this brie from Cranborne Chase in Dorset has complex flavours. Starting young with light mushroomy tones it can develope to strong, earthy and salty. When truly runny it mellows out. Mmmmmm!

A classic goat log which is fine and compact. Made by charlie at Neal's Dairy and was developed when they were based in Kent so it's named after Ragstone Ridge. Excellent for melting on tarts as it holds it's flavour.
