Product Description
Along with their conquering armies, the Romans brought their cheese making expertise to England in the first century AD. But it was not until the sixteenth century when the cheese we know today as cheddar was so named. With such a long history, it's no surprise that cheddar is one of the world's favorite foods. So popular in fact, that almost every cheese-producing nation makes its own version. This assortment contains excellent examples from three continents:- Denhay Mature English Cheddar: Denhay Cheddar is carefully matured and monitored until it is 11 months old when it is sold as premium West Country Farmhouse Cheddar. (8 oz.)
- Grafton Classic Reserve Cheddar: Grafton Classic Cheddar is an outstanding mature cheddar cheese selected for its pronounced flavor and smooth finish. This two year aged cheese is excellent when accompanied with dried fruits and nuts, crusty breads, and big wines. (8 oz.)
- Great Ocean Road Cheddar: This sharp white cheddar hails from Australia, where it is made from pure milk taken from cows that graze on lush pastures swept by winds from the Southern Ocean. (8 oz.)
- Red Leaf Cheddar: This entrant from North America has a firm texture and a sweet, honeyed flavor. Best enjoyed with ale and fruit, this cheddar is aged for over 12 months. (8 oz.)
Please note that any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal value.

 Delicious, flavorful cheddars June 4, 2010
H. Grove (Maryland, USA)
My igourmet order was quick and easy, and arrived in good condition. While I prevaricated about spending this much for cheddars, I'm glad I did. It was a nice treat for a special occasion---these are unusually flavorful and delightful, and each type has its own flavor notes. The important thing is to find recipes or uses that don't in any way obscure the amazing flavors!
 Bait and Switch on the shipping! January 22, 2010

Watch out people, the amount they claim they charge for shipping is almost 1/3 what they try to nail you for at the check out. I've already filed a complaint with Amazon about this as I didn't catch the bait and switch pricing lie until after I had placed my order. Lucky for me Amazon canceled the order.
Don't get cheated!
 Forgotten Gift January 21, 2010
Nancy Shoemaker (Louisville, Ky.)
Even though the cheese was ordered as a Christmas gift. It was shipped to my brother without an acknowlegement. He had no idea who sent it. I didn't find this out until last week. He just thought I had forgotten them at Christmas and assumed the cheese was from the company he worked for.
Did not deliver on time as stated- wasted $23.99 two day chg. December 27, 2009

One of the best I have received March 13, 2009

I am usually not overly impressed with these samplers of specialty cheeses, but I do run a cross one now and again that simply stand out. This is one of them. I fully admit to being almost addicted to good cheddar so perhaps this is part of it. The quality of this cheese, even after being shipped all over the place and from heaven knows where, is absolutely excellent. My sweet friend Brenda sent me this one and it is going to take some hard work to figure out how to top her on this one. Secret for you: I plan to purchase one or two of these myself soon horde it away, and simply not share! I do recommend you give this sampler a try...you will be absolutely delighted.
