Tunworth Camembert from The Courtyard Dairy
Merchant: Real Food Hub
Model: 42127407
Brand: The Courtyard Dairy
Merchant's Category: Printer Consumables
An English Camembert good enough to make a Frenchman weep: vegetal, porcini-flavoured and intense. The Courtyard Dairy selects only particular Tunworth's that are more wrinkled. This makes for a more intense flavour – making an already brilliant cheese simply outstanding. Tunworth was awarded Supreme Champion Cheese 2013 (British Cheese Awards). In 2004, after falling in love with cheese whilst working for cheesemongers in Australia, Stacey Hedges started making cheese at home. Eventually her husband gave her an ultimatum: get serious or stop making cheese. Stacey researched among cheesemongers what was missing in the market, which led to her deciding to make a Camembert in a style akin to the traditional French. Consequently she set up Hampshire Cheeses, and Tunworth was born (named after the nearby hamlet of Tunworth, near Basingstoke). By 2006 Tunworth was fast becoming a brilliant cheese. Stacey Hedges was using traditional Camembert techniques (a slow acidification, and hand-ladling) as well as undulating moulds and yeasts that help to create a unique cheese. (The Courtyard Dairy asks for it to be as wrinkled as possible so it has a more intense vegetal, porcini flavour). Charlotte Spruce now partners Stacey in making this amazing cheese: its good enough to make a Frenchman weep! (Stacey has won with Tunworth cheese the coveted ‘Supreme Champion’ award at The British Cheese Awards not once, but twice – in 2006 and 2013.)
