Cheese sizes
The sizes we suggest for each cheese are approximate. Never a fixed size product, cutting from two different handmade cheeses can result in two different sized pieces. We will always try to be as accurate as possible and if one piece in your order is a little bit light you can be assured that another will be a little bit heavy to compensate!
Cheese availability
Very occasionally a cheese will not be available to fulfil your order. If this is the case then we will leave this cheese off your order.
