Product Description
What could be better than to break out that prized bottle of wine youve been saving, served with some of the worlds greatest cheeses? This Eight-Cheese Sampler was created with everyones palate in mind. The cheeses in the sampler are: Blue - From Italys famed Lombardy region comes superb Mountain Gorgonzola. It is mild yet tangy, creamy yet firm, with a pale interior laced with streaks of blue. Delicious served the Italian way (drizzled with honey), it is a real treat for connoisseurs. Nutty - Exta Aged Farmer Gouda is ripened for a full 18 months to develop its nutty, caramel-like flavor. It is always a crowd pleaser. Robust - Swiss Gruyere is a wonderfully versatile raw cow's milk cheese with a fruity, spicy, full flavor. Creamy - No holiday cheese assortment would be complete without authentic cheddar, and this one from Shelbourne Farms is as good as it gets. Sheep - Malagon with Rosemary is made from 100% sheep's milk. Aged for over three months, this cheese has a wonderfully firm texture and an herbed-flavor that comes from its rosemary-impregnated rind. Goat - Famous chef Cas Spijkars spent years developing the recipe Dorothea, a remarkable Dutch goat cheese. Once tasted, never forgotten. Sweet - This delightful dessert cheese studded with mango and ginger pieces is the UK's best seller! Tangy - The most famous cheese from Normandy, it has a white mold rind and a delicious, creamy interior. Whether entertaining or having an intimate night in by the fire, our selection of favorites is sure to be a winner. Please note that any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal value.

I cannot say enough about this wonderful and unique selection of cheeses. I was given this as a gift and I must say it was a wonderful gift! Each cheese was well packed (vacuum) and all was fresh and stayed that way until I was ready to serve and eat. The size or portions were great and the unique flavors were awesome. This is an odd assortment and you will be in for some very pleasing surprises. I plan to order several of these this Christmas for friends and family and secretly hope they do the same for me.

Based on the great reviews, I ordered the cheese package as a gift. After waiting several days for an acknowledgment from my friends I brazeningly asked for their assessment of the cheese. Much to my amazement, they had not received the gift. Upon contacting igourment I was informed that based upon their FedEx records it had been delievered (not signed for) and too much time had passed and they would not refund the gift nor redeliver the package. They did offer to sell me the same package at half price.

I did not have an easy order in that I needed it shipped to Saipan. Their customer services person said it couldn't be done, but they corrected themselves (maybe a new person on the job that didn't know) and sent the cheese. My friend was graciously thankful and I am therefore thankful as well for their services.

I wasn't sure what the quality or size would be. UPS had to delay the shippment a couple days due to bad weather and product still arrived cold. Packed very well with styrofoam and coldpaks. Cheeses vaccuum packed so I didn't feel like I had to eat all that cheese right away. Cheeses were sized well. Decent sized bricks and wheels. No ordinary cheeses. Things like Blueberry Stilton were the norm. Even had a cheese I had never heard of. Was a great value. I'll definately be purchasing from them in the future.
Great selection, excellent value December 5, 2006

I severed this selection at a holiday party full of people who love exotic cheese, and these were a hit! Everyone raved about the variety, and wanted to know where I got such unusual items. When I said they were online, and metioned the price, people where shocked at the value. A similar amount of such items at a local gourmet grocer would have easily cost twice as much. Especially memerable were the Rosemary Magala and the Ginger Mango Stilton. So good, we're going to use this vender for our monthly Wine and Cheese parties.
