"  Eric Charriaux, owner of La Cave a Fromage, introduces us to ten unusual cheeses that&amp;#039;ll add a surprise element to your evening board this Christmas.  Five From Europe  1 | Casa Matias (Portugal) A soft ewe&amp;#039;s milk cheese with a unique sweetness. Made using thistle as a rennet.  2 | Cabrales (Spain) Blue cheese from Asturias, made using cow&amp;#039;s milk. Rich, salty and spicy. Pungent and very addictive.  3 | Montebore (Italy) Piemonte produced cheese made mixing cow and ewe&amp;#039;s milk. It&amp;#039;s made into a kind of tower by overlapping three different cheeses. Light acidity and sweetness combined.  4 | Tomme Au Marc De Raisin (France) Only produced in the Autumn, this is best eaten around Christmas. Made from cow&amp;#039;s milk soaked in Marc white brandy, then covered with dried versions of the grapes used for the Marc and let to dry and mature, releasing lovely fruity and alcohol flavours.  5 | Smoked Gubbeen (Ireland) This semi-soft cow&amp;#039;s milk cheese combines a rich texture and a delicate smoky aroma. \u00A0  Five From Britain  1 | Love Ewe Soft ewe&amp;#039;s milk cheese from Gloucestershire, washed with brine - sweet and pungent  2 | Grosmont Soft cow&amp;#039;s milk cheese washed with cider from Monmouthshire and aged in either whisky or rum barrels. Fruity and very aromatic.  3 | Lincolnshire Poacher A very earthy, hard cow&amp;#039;s milk cheese from Lincolnshire. Lightly acidic, extremely well made and aged on the farm.  4| Stilton Au Porto Our own version of mixing these two jewels - a unique combination of salt and sugar, of spice and sweetness.  5 | Cherwell Fresh cheese, created recently on a farm in Staffordshire using unpasteurised goat&amp;#039;s milk and animal rennet. Creamy when young, becoming earthy when dry and matured.  *** MORE FOOD AND DRINK ROUND-UPS:9 Of The Best ChampagnesThe World&amp;#039;s Best Scotch WhiskiesThe Best Christmas Parcels*** "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
