Every once in a while I like to buy a few funky cheeses from the local cheese shop.

I never remembered what I've already had, so decided to make a log. Sadly this first log is from March, and I did not take aby pictures so I had to look them up online.

Here are my thoughts in a couple words per cheese (sorry for the lack of sophisticated language. When I wrote this I was a couple weeks post partum and didn't have the brain space for words.)

Tomme de savoire (French, Cow's)- springy-soft, reminiscent of a Gouda or a mild cheddar, baby bell like.

Stinking bishop (British. Loved my Wallace and Gromit. Named after a pear)- salty, farmy, butter, manure-like. Not as smelly as expected.

Vintage alpage (hard, made from raw milk) – super nutty and sweet.

Beenleigh (sheep's blue from Devon) – Delicious. (Really ran out of steam on this one.)

Delice de Bourgogne (triple cream, French) – tangy, soft, absolutely delicious, grassy.

Wild garlic la bouse (Swiss seasonal) – divine, tastes a bit like posh dairylea triangles in a good way.
