The Togs crew are pretty excited, just arrived from France are some old favourites and a few new cheeses for you to try:
Washed Rind Petit Pont Leveque
Pungent and creamy this cheese is perfect for a winter evening in front of the fire with a sweet pinot noir.
Clarines
A luscious triple cream made even more delicious by warming it in the oven – just crack the seal, add a splash of white wine and bake in the oven for 10 mins on medium heat, dip bread in and enjoy the lusciousness of it all.
Banon – Le Vache de Chalais
A handmade cheese from Givors- France, delicately wrapped in a vine leaf , this traditional cheese made from cow or goat's milk aged a month. The one's in store now are cow's milk .Match it with champagne or sauvignon Blanc. This cheese is as BEAUTIFUL as it is DELICIOUS. 
Beautiful Banon
