Cheese by Mail Order

We have hesitated in growing our Mail Order business because the same question kept coming up; 'What if we print up a list or, even worse, take an order, and then the particular cheese is not available?' As most of our cheese is produced on such a small scale and with such variable results, this is a very real prospect. 

So, we have decided that the best way is to approach Mail order with the same method as we use in the shop i.e., rely on our judgment to send you the best of what's available on the day. 

Please take a look at our suggested selections below, if they don't suit we are to do any amounts and combination as you require.  You can use the order form below or alternatively you can order by telephone (+64 3 379 0075) or by email.
