proteins are good with wines thats why you match wine to your meat at dinner. you can do an initnife number of meat stuffed kinds of things. a little spiced sausage stuffed in a fig or mushroom cap or try wrapping a small strip of procuitto around a cantelope ball and skewer it with a toothpick. i am really keen on salty good olives, cheap caviar, deviled quail eggs yum. a classic spanish tapas that never fails to impress is a tortilla espana you slice a small onion and 2 small potatoes really thin and fry them til cooked and a little brown. pour in 4 eggs beaten and cook it like an omlette. slide it out on a plate to flip it over and cook the other side. after it cools some cut it in little square and stick a toothpick in it. if it comes out kind of sloppy stick it on a cracker and put a couple fresh oregano leaves on top. a little creativity goes a long way.

I went to a commercial wine taitnsg recently and they had used cookie cutters to cut the cheese in little flower shapes and stars, kind of cool. I would have a large selection of cheeses chedders, swiss, havarti etc. I would also serve fruits such as melon varieties, apples, pears, (nothing too sweet unless you are serving something really dry). Also crackers and maybe something chocolate.

I am thrilled with my purchase from Pong Cheese. On Tuesday I ordered this box for a friend’s birthday present and it arrived on Wednesday in perfect condition and with a lovely little card for my friend. I really hope he is as pleased with it as I am! Thanks Pong Cheese

Fantastic!
This was my partner’s Christmas present and he absolutely loved it. I don’t eat cheese but was reliably informed that they were all delicious. Strong hints were also dropped that similar presents would be very appreciated in the future… works for me!

Excellent
Got this as a Valentine’s gift for my husband what a great gift! The cheese was delicious and a great way to try some new cheeses. Peters yard biscuits were a perfect accompaniment Will definitely order from you again thank you!

Superb
We received our first ever parcel last week having selected the Taster Box. Disappointed we were not. All four cheeses were superb, the Westcombe cheddar is the best hard cheddar I’ve had in a long time, but the Blue Monday was truly heavenly – one, if not the best ever creamy blue cheese we’ve tasted.

Amazing cheeses
I ordered this selection as a birthday present for my cheese loving husband and he was over the moon. Perfect sized portions and delivered on time, as I’d ordered a few weeks earlier. My favourite was the Blue Monday and I’m not really a fan of blue cheese. Thank you Pong Cheese I will definitely be recommending you

Fabulous
Bought this for ourselves over Xmas as we couldn’t decide which cheeses to get so for this bix plus ac couple of extras. Clifton Leaf is outstanding (why is it only available in this box) with Blue Monday a close second. Will be signing up for monthly box.

Got one for my birthday and absolutely loved it. A good variety of cheeses and all delicious. I didn’t previously like some of these types of cheese but now I realise I just handy found the right supplier. A great present.
