This cheeseboard has a perfect balance of punchy mature, creamy blue, delicate yellow, nutty and tangy, all locally produced.
Webster's Blue Stilton
Wonderfully creamy, blue veined Stilton cheese. Most of Webster’s staff have been cheese makers all their working lives. Based in the heart of rural Leicestershire, Webster’s blue veined Stilton cheeses are handmade to a consistently high standard. Each Stilton is hand-picked for quality.
Lincolnshire Poacher
Distinctive fruity, nutty taste and a clean sweet finish. Based in the Lincolnshire Wolds, Simon and Tim Jones are dedicated to producing distinctive Lincolnshire Poacher. They use fresh unpasteurised milk from the farm’s Holstein Fresian cows and traditional methods to make the cheese. Simon Jones is the fourth generation running the farm, which began in 1917. The process requires patience as the cheese is matured for many months.
Just Jane Mature & Just Jane Vintage Cheddar

Based in Skegness, Lincolnshire, Lymn Bank Farm is a family-run business, with many years of cheese making experience. The family use local ingredients to hand-craft a selection of quality cheeses with unique textures and tastes. The Just Jane cheese is named after the famous Lancaster plane based at East Kirkby near Spilsby. With every sale of Just Jane, they make a donation to the Lincolnshire Aviation Centre to support their campaign to fix the plane to become airworthy.
Cote Hill Yellow
Soft & creamy with a mellow flavour. Made with unpasteurised milk. Michael and Mary Davenport have been farming at Cote Hill Farm in Lincolnshire for more than 30 years. They started making cheese in 2005 using milk produced by their herd of Friesian, Holstein and Red Poll cows. Michael milks the cows twice a day and Mary uses the morning milk to make cheese. During the summer the cows graze clover rich pasture and in the winter eat grass and maize silage together with red clover haylage. This home produced forage, together with the high standard of cow management produces top quality award winning cheese.
