I found this interesting cheese in Debenham Co-op. Never seen this company before but the co-op had about a dozen different cheeses from them [not all those pictured below]
Croome Cheese are a family run business based on the outskirts of Worcester passionate about creating award winning cheeses. We source local ingredients (where we can) introducing a wide range of flavours to cheese and smoking traditionally over Oak logs.
From horse power to solar power and eco-friendly packaging at the forefront of food innovation, those impressionable days still inspire our cheese making ethos, working with only the finest quality cheese paired with local and iconic ingredients.
Although I'd not have the Worcestershire Hop cheese again I'm willing to try another from this company.

I tried a charcoal (cheddar?) and certainly wouldn't recommend!
ReplyDeleteA black cheese doesn't appeal at all!
DeleteWouldn't recommend charcoal cheese crackers either! (They came in a box of mixed cheese biscuits) There are some tempting cheeses in the pictures...
ReplyDeleteI'm really not sure at eating something that's usually lighting a BBQ!
DeleteThere are some tempting varieties there.
ReplyDeleteI will get to that Co-op to try another later this month. Several sound better than charcoal
DeleteI like Hereford Hop. That is delicious and not a Cheddar as such, if I remember rightly. I don't mind the hop flavour. Some intreresting cheeses in your pictures. What will you try next? I wonder if the Whittington Oak is connected to Whittington Castle (though that's Shropshire and not Worcs). I still think Cornish Yarg is one of my most favourite cheeses.
ReplyDeleteI'll see which ones they have in the shop later this month - the fig sounds interesting - maybe
DeleteWell done for eating it up!
ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of cheeses with things added, they rarely live up to expectations and it drives me nuts sometimes when I'm trying to find a slightly different cheese like Cheshire or Lancashire and all I can find is one with added bits.

I used to like the Wensleydale with cranberries when it was first out but now I'll try all sorts
DeleteIn Indonesia, cheddar is the most common cheese. It is widely available, affordable, and used in many popular foods such as martabak, kastengel, bread, and cakes.
ReplyDeleteSeveral cheeses are based on cheddar with things added - I usually like all sorts
DeleteLots of these sound great, particularly the one with bramble. However, I suspect none of them will make their way to our local shops!
ReplyDeleteYou (well, I think it was you!) recommended Red Fox last year and it’s become one of my favourite and regularly bought cheeses.

I've not seen Red Fox in Aldi lately - probably forgotten to look! This one was my 18th taste test - according to labels still 100s to try!
DeleteThe bramble or the fig would probably be the ones I would try first, but then I enjoy a fruity cheese. Interesting company.
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely trying another - I'll see what they have
DeleteThe fig and the ginger would appeal to me……yum
ReplyDeleteAlison in Devon x
I fancy trying the truffle as I've never had truffles - except chocolate ones!
DeleteA lot of these sound really interesting. We have a new cheese shop in town that does a very nice job of it. I'll have to see if they have this company's cheeses -- I know they do have Brit ones. I had one called "Builders" from Devon the other day. It was fabulous -- sharp cheddar.
ReplyDeleteI think Id like most but agree, probably not the hops or the worstershire one. I love fruit with cheese, so those all sounded delicious.
ReplyDeleteYou're spoilt for choice there. I prefer my cheese relatively unadulterated and eat fruit with it if I feel like it.
ReplyDeleteSo many cheeses there for you to try. I tried a non-dairy charcoal cheese and it was delicious, but I guess that's not much of a comparison is it. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'd love to try a few of these cheeses too.
ReplyDeleteThe mustard one sounds interesting to me. A slice on a burger with red onion, lettuce and tomato would be lovely.
What an assortment. I think I'd be tempted to try several of those.
ReplyDeleteI'd be happy to give any of them a go, to be honest. I love cheese. I wonder if they can be ordered online. xx
ReplyDeleteWe had the Talisman as part of a selection box from Waitrose (marked down and another 20% off on cheese counter Thursday). We thought it was delicious. Unfortunately they don't sell it on its own and we haven't seen it anywhere else. As an aside, we went to Croome Estate on holiday a couple of years ago. It’s a pleasant NT place with an unrestored, largely empty house and a small plane museum alongside.
ReplyDeleteI'll have a look in our Coop for the cheese but suspect we don't get it in Cornwall.
I would definitely like to try several of these. What weight are they? Three pounds seems like a very reasonable price. My favourite cheese treat is $10 for 200 grams.
