Harvey & Brockless Launches Winter Cheese Collection

The collection showcases three new British cheeses – White Lake’s Sheep Rustler, a semi-hard rind washed cheese with a clean and nutty flavour; Baron Bigod by Fen Farm Dairy, a Brie-de-Meaux style cheese from Suffolk; and Rollright from King Stone Dairy, a semi-soft cheese with a buttery texture.

Also new to the range are two cheeses from French cheesemaker and affineur Gaugry: Chablis, a cows’ milk cheese infused with white wine; and Epoisse, known for its reddish rind and pungent floral aroma.

The selection also now includes two Alpine cheeses – Terroir’s Mont D’or; encircled in spruce bark and infused with a pine flavour; and Reblochon from Fermier Paccard, an indulgent cheese made using milk from the farm’s own animals.

Owen Davies, category manager at Harvey & Brockless said, “The winter cheese collection features the finest artisan British and Continental cheeses – all of which have gone through a rigorous selection process.

“We are delighted to be introducing three new British cheeses, as well as welcoming French cheesemaker and affineur, Gaugry.

“Our winter range satisfies all tastes - and includes award-winning, innovative and new cheeses. Our objective is to offer our customers, across retail and foodservice, all that they need to complete their cheese ranges – and we think this collection really ticks the box.”
