Champagne & Cream in Wicker Hamper

Finn is a soft, double cream cheese with a sweet, slightly nutty and mushroomy flavour and a distinctly salty tang. Made by Charlie Westhead at Neal’s Yard Creamery it’s based on French triple cream cheeses, made from whole milk with added cream to make the cheese richer. Fresh lactic flavours cut through the creamy texture when young. Rich woody flavours of walnuts and mushrooms develop with age, especially in the rind. The Cheese is named after a dog Charlie had at the time and seems appropriate as in Irish, it means ‘great white one’!

A soft, bloomy-rinded cheese with a pale yellow, buttery paste.  More delicate than a French Brie and less mushroomy and vegetably, the sweet grassy pastures, sown with clover, on which the cows graze reflected in the taste of the cheese. Made at Kirkham farm, near Lower Slaughter, where the Weavers have been farming organically for three generations. Every morning the milk travels the five meters from the milking shed to the creamery and is pasteurised but not standardised, so it retains its unique and variable character. Simon Weaver has won a number of prestigious awards for his cheese.
