Inside a smart gift basket you’ll find four award-winning Snowdonia cheeses – Black Bomber extra mature Cheddar; Red Storm vintage Red Leicester; Green Thunder mature Cheddar with roasted garlic and herbs; and Red Devil Red Leicester with Habanero chillies, peppers and spices – matched with four single-estate chocolate bars, handpicked as unexpectedly delicious flavour pairings. We’ve also included a tasting guide to walk you through each one, and a Welsh slate board for serving it all.

Cheese Preparation Guide

Our cheeses are famous for their jewel-coloured wax casings – not only do they look good, but they keep the cheese tasting delicious, retain all-important moisture and help preserve it, too. Here are our recommendations for preparing waxed cheeses to serve.

First, remove the cheese from the fridge and allow it to reach room temperature before cutting into it. This softens the wax slightly and cheese also tastes better when it’s not fridge-cold.

Next, remove the sticky labels. To make a good, clean slice, make sure you always use a very sharp knife.
