A Cheesemonger's Compendium introduces 150 of the finest cheeses from across the British Isles. It's the perfect companion for all of us hooked by Ned Palmer's acclaimed 'Cheesemonger's History of the British Isles'.


Each cheese on Ned's cheeseboard is accompanied by a morsel of history or a dash of folklore, a description of its flavours, and an enticing illustration. Along the way Palmer peppers his book with stories of eccentric and colourful cheesemakers and celebrates both traditional farmhouse and modern artisanal cheeses - fresh, mould-ripened, washed-rind, blue and hard. He explains how to buy your cheese like a monger, how to cut and store it, and how best to match it with drinks.

The guide is completed by a brilliantly illustrated gazetteer.
