This British cheese and chutney hamper is a generous step up, built around the best of the British cheese counter. We fill it with Cropwell Bishop Stilton and nettle-wrapped Cornish Yarg, then add the chutney, membrillo and biscuits to go with them. The cheese is always British; the trimmings come from the best small makers across Europe. Lift the lid, and a cheeseboard is ready.

The British cheese

At the heart of this British cheese and chutney hamper sits the cheese: Cropwell Bishop Stilton and nettle-wrapped Cornish Yarg. Each one is made by hand in the British countryside. So each tastes of exactly where it comes from. Serve them from soft to strong, and let everyone find a favourite. A little of each goes a long way, so there is plenty to share.

The accompaniments

Then come the accompaniments. There is Spanish quince paste, or membrillo, which loves a hard cheese. Marcona almonds add crunch and salt. Corsican fig chutney brings a sweet, tangy lift. And there are crisp olive-oil crackers to carry it all. Together, they turn good cheese into a proper spread. Everything has been chosen to sit well together on the board.

How to serve it

Set it out on a board and pour a glass of something. Add fresh figs or grapes if you have them. It is the kind of gift that brings people to the table. You can browse our British hampers for more, or read about Cornish Yarg.
