We are no longer taking pre-orders for Christmas collection or delivery in Glasgow and Edinburgh. A big thank you to all our customers who have secured their cheeses in advance, but we just can't do any more pre-orders, we don't have the space or manpower to make them up and store them. That doesn't mean you can't come in to the shops and buy cheese, we've still got plenty to offer!

WHAT IT TASTES LIKE: Gentle, fresh, lemon peel and natural yoghurt sharpness with a full-flavoured acidic finish. Firm and crumbly paste.

WHERE IT COMES FROM: The Stewart family have farmed at Falside in the East Neuk of Fife for more than 50 years and have been making cheese by hand from the milk of their own Holstein cows since 2008. The cows graze on lush green pasture looking over the fishing village of Anstruther, known locally as Anster (pronounced Ainster). Pairs well with Pinot Noir or Merlot. Made by Jane Stewart.
