Introducing Stowaway

We are thrilled to announce that we have been working with the Development Chefs at Cunard to develop 2 unique new cheeses. Stowaway, a sheep's milk cheddar style cheese was launched on Queen Anne's maiden voyage, with a secod cheese due to be launched later this year.

Feedback from Awards Judges

"A handsome looking cheese with slightly erratic and uneven veining. Gently tangy aroma. There is a most enjoyable, gentle flavour here, a touch stronger by the rind. This is the sort of cheese that gets finished off when it is brought to the table. Some tang, some sweetness, a little vibrancy from the blue. The salt level is spot on. All too easy to eat!"

About Cranborne Blue, 3 Great Taste stars, 2024.

"This handsome cheese with eye-catching rind is both crumbly and creamy, with a fresh and bright flavour. Delicate but moreish, this has the sort of texture and flavour which would make us eat a lot of it."
