    As as kid I only liked mild Cheddar. I've matured since then.

    Would demolish most cheeses on a cheese board. I did however try something which IIRC was called le petit munster that a friend brought back from France. It smelled of what I can only imagine trench foot smells like and the taste wasn't much better.

    Enjoy St.Andre on a cracker once in a while, makes a change from Brie.

    Another vote for the magnifique Époisses. Ideally needs to be kept in a fridge of its own though.

    Wensleydale also great with Christmas cake at this time of year.

    I was once offered chance to try black bomber in Wales. Walked out of the shop in disgrace before my wife explained it was a cheese.

    Matured for 35 weeks. Very very smelly, but beautiful, especially on freshly baked rye bread.

    Black Bombers were quite a different thing back in the mid 60's!

    Snowdonia Little Black Bomber cheddar is incredible. I cannot find a better cheddar.

    I'll second that.

    Eat a cheeseboard just one night of the year, for the final of the darts, and its a bit of post-Xmas ritual I really look forward to.

    Range of 4-5 cheese, a good chutney, some silverskin pickled onions, Mrs Elwoods' Cucumber spears, and a bottle of fat coca cola.

    Looking forward already, lets play darts!

    Never had that but I did see they have nokkelost, so I will pop in there next time I'm in that area, and will see what gamle ole is like too.

    Went to one of the Goodmans a while back and was surprised to see no blue on the cheeseboard.

    Definitely try it. It'll knock your socks off, if you like strong smelly cheese.
