Champion Cow Hamper

Tuck into a treat with this Champion Cow Hamper and enjoy the best of our cheeses accompanied by a red wine. This special bundle features a luxury 16" wicker hamper containing all of our champion cheeses!

This Champion Cow hamper includes:

• Luxury 16" Hamper with a bottle of Mont Rocher Carignan (75cl)
• Bath Soft Cheese (250g) Supreme Champion 2019 Artisan Cheese Awards winner. When young, this cheese has a mushroomy and creamy with a hint of lemons and, as it matures, develops a garlicky taste.  It is based on a recipe from the 1700s, and is mentioned in a letter from Lord Nelson. For a gooey texture, leave at room temperature for an hour before serving.
  
• Wyfe of Bath (200g) Supreme Champion 2019 International Cheese Awards winner.  Succulent, nutty, and creamy, this semi-hard cheese is similar to a Gouda in texture, and resembles the cheese farmers’ wives would make out of soured milk. It is matured for 4-6 months, and takes its name from Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales . Like the tale, when you cut into a Wyfe of Bath you will get a taste of old England.
  
• Bath Blue (200g) Supreme Champion 2014 World Cheese Awards winner.  A classic blue veined cheese, likened to Stilton but creamier and not as strong as the majority of blue cheeses. You could say it's the Best Cheese in the World! 
  
• Merry Wyfe (330g mini round)  UK Champion 2019 International Cheese Awards winner, this cheese is made by washing the pressed curds of the Wyfe of Bath in cider every other day for four weeks. The pasteurised cider is made on the farm by Graham Padfield, from apples from the orchards. The distinctive orange rind, which comes from the cider wash, imparts earthy and umami tones in a creamy, buttery paste giving a rich, slightly sweet and fruity long-lasting flavour. It’s called Merry Wyfe because she is a little tipsy after her cider bath!                                     
• Extra Mature Wyfe of Bath (200g) This is the mature version of our 2019 Supreme Champion winner, and this Wyfe of Bath is aged for between 12 and 18 months.  Stronger in taste but still retaining its creamy consistency, it has an additional fudge-like aftertaste.
