Great staff, great cheeses. Would recommend they stock supermarket cheap crackers, you know like the pepper flavoured things to what they already have and call it the "Basement Section" or something... See more

Reply from The Cheese Society
Hi Tom, I'm very sorry to hear your cheese was delivered a day late. Sadly, once the cheese is out of our hands and with DPD, we have less control over the delivery process. We do advise getting deliveries for special occasions a day early to account for any unforeseen courier delays. That said, it shouldn't happen, but frustratingly, sometimes it does. It's a constant battle with couriers, and we're always working to find the best couriers for our business.

As the delivery was a gift the recipient told me she was very pleased with the delivery & assortment of unusual cheeses.
I will use you again.

Great Cheese, Tough Crackers
Really nice cheeses in the Valentines set, but I was less impressed by the crackers, which were much harder than I expected. The flavours of the chutney were good. Overall, a decent collection slightly spoiled by the crackers.

The parcel arrived on time.
The cheeses were well wrapped & in perfect, fresh condition as if I’d just bought them that morning from their shop in Lincoln.

Belated Christmas gift.
I bought my parents the Burns night inspired cheeses & some of the salami as a late Christmas gift. They gave me their feedback & said it's all really incredible & delicious. Just what I wanted to hear. I'm so pleased they enjoyed the gift.
The cheese society is an excellent little place & I would highly recommend it to everyone.

Our cheese loving grandsons away at school love your Lucky Dip selection, highlight of their term. Delicious and different every time, (and no growling from parents if we sent sweets). Delivered on time to the right place. We are very happy grandparents!
