Selecting the perfect cheeses for your feast is a crucial step in creating an unforgettable experience. The art of cheese selection is all about finding the right balance of flavours, textures, and strengths to create a harmonious and exciting cheese board.

To begin, consider a variety of cheeses that will give different tastes. Blue cheese is rich, salty and bold, and Cheddar is tangy but has a wide range of flavours. Don't be scared of mixing up cheese flavours to add to your elements of surprise and intrigue.

The texture is also another important thing when choosing cheese. You don't want only hard cheeses. Neither do you want to include only soft cheeses. You must strike a balance between both to give that mouthfeel experience. Think about how cheeses will complement each other and serve your guests just right, with complementing flavours.

Lastly, pay attention to the strength of the cheeses. Include a mix of mild and strong options to cater to different palates. This will ensure that there is something for everyone to enjoy.

By carefully curating your cheese board, you can create a masterpiece of flavours and textures that will delight your guests. Remember, the art of cheese selection is all about balance, variety, and creating a truly unforgettable experience. But don’t forget to add a
personalised cheese board to give your centrepiece that edge!

Your Cheese Board and Alcohol

After creating the right cheese board, you need to find the right beverage to go alongside because the right one will enhance the entire experience. You can choose wines (the most common), beer or spirits depending on your cheese board centrepiece combinations. If you had hard flavours mostly in your centrepiece, it only makes sense to have soft wines and vice versa. Check out our luxury cheese hampers and see what you are missing out on.
