As close to Harrods as you can get.............

My wife found this new item in our store today and believe me it tastes as good as Harrods.

Just in case this is a one time stock occurence I'm going to the store tomorrow to pick up a case or two.

The more it smells the better it tastes.

The smelliest (is that a word) I can think of is the Danish Gamle Ole, but ohhhh so good.

Darn it Mon, I now have the urge of eating some cheese.

I must admit I have never been tempted to try blue cheese, something I find shameful as I love to discover new things. I should definitely give at least one kind a try.

Must admit that I love Stilton and I love Port.

This is just my opinion and nothing more, but pouring the Port into the Stilton, IMHO is a waste of good cheese and a waste of good Port, Stilton has a distinctive taste without adding other flavours. I have tried it like that but preferred eating cheese from a plate with a biscuit and drinking Port from a Port glass. I find that Port can cultivate one of the best hangovers known to man.

I really enjoy cheese but only the ones with strong flavor.....Blue cheese, Cheddar(aged 8 or more years), aged Swiss and even the really smelly ones as well!!!
Nothing like good old Stilton Blue...there are really a lot of excellent cheeses to try and eat from all over the world.....

Take it easy.....Leo
