🧀 Deli specials of the week.
Highlight- 2 cheeses from
France.
Munster Fischer.
Munster is a washed rind cows milk cheese that takes its name from a French village in Alsace.
Famous for its pronounced pungent aroma, but has a creamy, and slightly sweet flavour.
Matured in humid mountain cellars, Munster is washed and turned regularly to develop a sticky terracotta-coloured rind.

Crottin d’Antan.
A traditional French goat’s cheese made in the historic Poitou-Charentes region, one of France’s heartlands of chèvre. When young, it is mild, lactic, and delicately creamy; with time, it develops nuttier, earthier flavours and a drier, more crumbly texture.
