Made in Oxforshire, this soft washed-rind can be compared to the French tangy Epoisses. Its pungent tang is nicely balanced by its regular wash in honey mead while its creamy paste develops a pronounced flavour and flowery aroma. Perfect sprinkled with cumin seeds and accompanied with a floral whites wines or an Ale beer.
