TESTIMONIALS ABOUT OUR BOXES
Grace T.
Bought as Christmas gift, it was absolutely delicious. The information regarding each cheese added to the enjoyment of the cheeseboard. We weren’t disappointed with any of the cheeses and will definitely be ordering again.
Thank you Rennet & Rind.
Jane L.
Wonderful addition to Christmas - the whole family love eating different cheeses, especially artisan ones. Have definitely converted the basic cheese eaters! Extremely yummy! Christmas would not be the same without the Mystery Cheese Box!
Ann B.
Arrived on time and in excellent condition. Stored in fridge for a couple of days before the whole family enjoyed the contents. There was enough variety and cheese for us all 6 adults. The Brie was a highlight. Pevensy Blue my favourite.
Virginia LACEY L.
More than enough for four people and the cheese was perfect to eat on Christmas Day.
Dianna K.
Excellent selection of cheeses.
Great services & delivery.
Will be ordering again / visiting the shop.
Louise H.
Cheese was fine but the charcuterie also ordered and paid for wasn’t included so that was a disappointment as we were visiting friends in London and had it delivered there. I won’t be ordering again due to missing parts of the order not put in with the cheese
Patrick G.
Brilliant Cheeses this year
Stephen G.
The Christmas Mystery Box was a real treat. A wonderful selection of cheeses to share on Christmas Day. Every cheese was a winner though our favourites were the Sparkenhoe and Pevensey. Service and the notes are top class.
Pete T.
Wonderful selection of cheeses, we shared it with some friends and their reaction was amazing. One particular friend just said ‘Wow’ as he took a bite of the sharp and tangy Red Leicester. The bottle of Cuvee was delicious, and was all the more special as it was local. Would very much recommend to anyone who appreciates good quality, amazing flavour and excellent customer service.
Tim C.
Fabulous cheeses with excellent information regarding the cheeses and advice re tasting and keeping them in prime condition- although they were soon devoured !
Michele G.
Having lived in France for over 10 years we were nervous about embracing a totally British cheese and charcuterie experience for Christmas. Would it match the selection and perfection that we had regularly experienced in France? All we can say is WOW! We were totally blown away by the contrasting and complementary textures and flavours of all the selected cheeses and charcuterie! Well done R&R! A superb selection, expertly chosen and carefully packed to ensure a safe and speedy arrival. We cannot wait to introduce our French friends to the R&R experience and reset their beliefs about British cheese and charcuterie. Thank you! And bravo to all the cheese makers for producing such magnificent products. We are so thrilled to have discovered Rennet & Rind. We will most definitely be ordering more from you this year!
Jill D.
Great selection of delicious cheeses. Efficient delivery.
Ros M.
the contents of the box was fantastic as always however....
I ordered the box early on, I didn't receive any contact of when it was going to be delivered, and none when it had been delivered.
luckily I found the box by chance behind my bins. I won't order again until I can be sure I'll get notification of delivery as I live in centre of town and things can go missing.
if this delivery notification issue could be fixed that would make it all pretty perfect.
Karen Q.
Christmas wouldn’t be the same without our Rennet and Rind box; fabulous cheese and charcuterie, and we enjoy the tasting notes from Perry too!
Anne-Marie C.
So excited to get the box for Christmas and it certainly delivered more than we expected. A great selection definitely something for everyone ..
A great addition for any Christmas/New Year celebration dinner and plenty to go around with generous portions of each
Eleanor P.
Amazing cheese box! Fabulous selection of cheeses in the mystery Christmas box. Can’t wait to order my next cheese board!
Jasmin A.
Another lovely cheese delivery from R&R - which has become a Christmas tradition. Packaged with care, delivered on time, the only challenge is not eating it too soon! The cheese selection is varied and interesting; some old favourites and some new varieties to try -the Moreton sparked quite a debate. Never remove Bigod; and the blue was exceptional. Thank you!
Harriet C.
We enjoyed the November mystery box so much (and the tasting video) we decided to purchase the Christmas mystery box for ourselves, friends and family. We are complete cheese lovers and therefore quite discerning. It is great to try British cheeses never encountered before. I would love to always get my cheese from Rennet & Rind and recommend you to all I see. Thank you for a great service and 100% satisfaction.
Mary T.
My family and I loved the cheeses selected for our mystery box. Also as one family member dislikes cheese we had made more than ample to eat due to generous portions.
What a find! We have been so impressed with all the cheeses we have received. Some are cheeses I would not have chosen myself however, they have turned out to be ones I will definitely order again. Really first class cheeses!
Boris H.
The cheese were magic. The Pevensey blue is by far the best blue I've ever tasted. And the Driftwood and Wensley and Truf went down a storm as well. I can't wait to taste more.
Carol L.
A wonderful addition to our Christmas meal, excellent range of cheeses to taste and enjoy and arrived in plenty of time and with very good instructions on looking after them. Would definitely recommend and do again.
Joyce S.
Perfect selection
Zac T.
Best cheese I’ve ever had and a good balanced selection. The blue was amazing.
Angela W.
Delivery was so easy to arrange and arrive promptly as requested. Our Christmas order arrived beautifully and carefully packaged. We transported the lovely cheeses up to London to share with overseas friends. The Christmas selection was a delightful surprise but suited all the diners with its wide range. With very helpful tasting notes and storage details it has been a great pleasure to enjoy cheese nee to our palate over this festive break. We now have some new favourites to order. Thank you Rennet and Rind for great contribution to our Christmas table.
Sara G.
Amazing variety and generous portions.
Gill G.
This is our second year, and once again the mystery Christmas cheese box was a highlight.
Guided by the tasting notes to old and new favourites there was something for everyone. This will definitely be a regular feature for us and our guests.
Sally P.
Was so excited to receive our Christmas mystery box and it did not disappoint.
All of the cheeses were wonderful and the chutneys were a great addition.
Looking forward to ordering our January mystery box. Would highly recommend
Nicola G.
Wow, just wow. Can't pick a favourite as all of the cheeses were incredible in their own, differing ways. This was our fourth cheese box and they never disappoint. Long dates so the grazing can continue across Christmas and into the New Year. Well done to Perry and all at Rennet and Rind.
Miss H.
Another Christmas and another stunning selection of exceptional cheeses from Rennet & Rind showcasing the very best of British cheese. A real treat.
Emma E.
Our Mystery Christmas Cheese Box arrived beautifully boxed & packaged in perfect time for Christmas. As for the cheese inside - scrumptious! Lots of British cheeses that I had not tried before, but will definitely be having again. Overall a brilliant delivery of delightful deliciousness! Thank you ☺️
Antonia P.
What a delicious box we've received and eaten! We had a selection for Christmas and it was fabulous. My family are all cheese lovers and they had tastes and quality that surprised and delighted - accompanied by classy biscuits and quince jelly.
What a special experience - thank you Rennet & Rind

Charlotte B.
Wonderful array and great to review them
Jill J.
Very tasty cheeses, specially liked the Baron Bigod. Sadly the Wensleydale Truffle cheese had grown a layer of mould by the time we got to it, but that’s our fault not yours! Will certainly try some more!
Eileen S.
Beautiful tasting cheeses, husband delighted with his Christmas present, loved the tasting notes, thank you.
Jan H.
Great selection of cheese again this year. We love this cheese shop.
Anne C.
A great addition to Boxing Day family evening. We were entertained by Perry’s video and enjoyed working our way through the excellent selection all of which were in prime condition. Thank you
Sybil E.
I liked it.
But I would like more
Smaller portions with a Cheese Board included, as it was a gift!
tracey b.
Mystery box was perfect… just the right amount of each cheese. A great selection too.
We love Rennet and Rind cheeses.
Actually gave a friend vouchers for Christmas.
Ed L.
As usual a super selection of cheeses which was just the thing for Christmas. Plenty of cheese made for a very happy Christmas night with the family. Plenty left over as well. Thank you R & R
Catherine H.
There was sadly no time or space for cheese to be properly respected and appreciated over Christmas and no real cheese addicts either! What a shame! So we have it all to ourselves now and we are prolonging the pleasure by having a daily lunchtime tasting between the two of us til it’s gone!
Thanks Perry for a great variety.
Suzanne W.
Have not yet tried all the cheese, but were bought as gifts and very well received. A fantastic gift idea!
John P.
A good very tasty selection of cheeses
Jane B.
Arrived well packaged and communication was good. I bought this for my husband and we are both enjoying the cheeses. They taste lovely and don't need fancy accompaniments to make them a real treat. Tops all other cheeses we have every had. Thank you for providing a great service and wonderful products, each a work of art. We will definitely be visiting the shop in Stamford.
Peter S.
Arrived on time and perfectly presented. Allowed the cheese to come up to room temperature and enjoyed Sparkenhoe Red Leicester has always been my favourite the Bigod was sublime and I baked the goats cheese with honey and figs, excellent. Saving the rest for this Saturday night when I have very special foodies coming over for dinner
Michael H.
A delightful experience freshly delivered in time for festive cheer.
Complex flavours and taste makes this a perfect gift for others or indulgence for you
Definitely will visit Stamford soon to enjoy the whole cheese experience.
Happy holidays
Debbie G.
Ordered this for my parents as we were seeing them on Xmas Eve, due to illness we didn't go but gifted the box to some close friends who were ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTED with it!
Alison M.
Three bought as gifts. All very happily received.
Zoe C.
The best selection of cheese I have had in a very long time. Outstanding, we had 3 other cheeses on the board someone had bought me that were barely touched. I blinked and tge good Baron had disappeared! Wonderful cheese, thank you.
Anthony L.
Delightful cheese, great selection and excellent tastes and textures.
Jane L.
Delicious, sadly not enough left to photograph..:-(
Excellent choice. Reasonable value. The
truffle cheese was the standout.
I'll be back
Perfect
All cheeses amazing.
Complemented each other really well.
Thank you.
If you like cheese this is the only place to buy it. This is the 4th time we bought cheese from R&R and all of the selections were top quality. Highly recommended
Eleanor D.
Fantastic Christmas cheese box with a great selection of cheeses for all tastes. Love the notes that tell you about each cheese and the taste profiles. This is a great little company with superb customer service. I had a problem with a delivery which I sent as a Christmas gift to my sister and within 30 minutes I had received a phone call and the problem was rectified immediately. I will definitely order again.
Nicholas J.
Thought I would give this a try rather than the traditional fare . The cheeses were an excellent choice with my guests enjoying the selection rather than the usual Christmas dessert.
It came on time and well packaged with clear instructions for storage .
Would certainly consider the mystery box again
Richard F.
Fantastic cheese and great service ,we lived in Spain for 16 years and said when we got back to the UK we would support farm shops and local cheese makers and that is what we try to do ,have a good Christmas and a happy New Year ,regards Richard
Simon H.
Second year we've had the Christmas cheese box and not disapointed. To be expected that there are three that have appeared in our cheese boxes over the last year as they are great cheeses. Had to sample but looking forward to 'tasting' as part of our celebrations.
Joanne S.
Arrived in time frame promised all looks great will definitely order more
Chris D.
Had a little issue with DPD, but the customer service was amazing. Bought this as an Xmas treat without the wife knowing, will definitely be ordering again. Thank you R N R, you have definitely exceeded my expectations of a quality product and service
Nicola T.
Fantastic cheese selection with really nice variety. Great value for money. A Christmas essential!
Chris D.
I was first introduced to Perry and Rennit & Rind in lockdown where we had an online cheese tasting afternoon. I’ve since purchased many mystery boxes and never been disappointed yet.
Just purchased the mystery Christmas box and looking forward to sampling it on Christmas Eve.
Sue P.
This was a present and went down a storm, thankyou!
Philip N.
Unpacked the box yesterday and the cheeses look beautiful. Not tried them yet but we intend to sample a couple this evening. The delivery was excellent - lots of info up front and delivery right on time. Strong, secure box and cheeses kept cool in specialist packing. Lots of good information provided - background to each cheese, order to eat etc. Good range of cheeses - one soft, one blue, one flavoured with truffle. All British.
Jackie T.
This was a present for my sister in law- she was thrilled with it! Unfortunately one of the cheeses was damaged in transit and I sent a photo; within minutes I had an apology and offer of replacement or discount voucher-absolutely exceptional customer service!
Paul G.
Like the idiot that I am I put in my address instead of my sons for the cheese to be delivered to, just before it left for delivery I noticed my error. Called you to explain my error and it was sorted witthin the one phone call.
Fabulous service.
ps My son is de;lighted with the Xmas cheese parcel.
Jackie W.
Another amazing cheese selection from Rennet and Rind. All arrived in beautiful condition and can’t wait to try them.
These guys really do go the extra mile: the courier messed up big time with our delivery, so when I emailed Rennet and Rind yesterday to explain I was over the moon to receive a call from the lovely Rose an hour or two later to let me know they were sending out a new batch next day delivery - now received. Thank you Rennet and Rind, your customer service is as exemplary as your cheese is.
Lynn J.
This is the second box I have bought from you for my consumption. Fabulous, beautiful packaging and cheese to die for. I also purchased one as a Christmas present that has gone down very well
Jane A.
Great quality, delicious cheese. Delivery on time, carefully wrapped. Ample portions. Thrilled with purchase.
Karen S.
The cheese was bought as a gift. The recipients thoroughly enjoyed the variety of cheeses. Nicely packaged
Sarah S.
Great service! Great selection of cheese.....I can't wait!
neil f.
We love Rennet and Rind cheese, and the company. The box has so much cheese in it that it keeps us going over Christmas and New Year! The taste is unlike anything you will have ever tasted before. Much nicer than French cheeses that are globally applauded - let's keep our secret to ourselves and enjoy it - smile and wave!!!
If you want seriously good tasting cheese (and you can now get a virtual tasting through the box too) then give R&R a try.
Susanne R.
The cheese is always delicious.
Its a wonderful way of trying new cheeses and discovering new favourites.
And its always well packaged for the transit and arrives on time
Tom C.
A brilliant box, great selection, perfectly taken care of with a lovely little piece about each one. Only had one so far and it was wonderful, baron bigod!
Fantastic value. Can’t wait to get more
Kirk S.
I use Rennet and Rind for all my thank yous, well dones and just for pleasure! They have always provided outstanding cheese with a first class service. Can not recommend highly enough.
Jonathan
Great cheese selection received.
Claire M.
Amazing cheese. Loved the mystery box and have already purchased the January box to keep my cheese addiction going. Can’t wait as I bought a number of extras for my next cheese box. Loved also enjoying the Rennet and Rind cheeseboard at the Packhorse Inn in Moulton recently.
Jane L.
Baron Bigod - Brilliant as always
Hafod - Very good
Rollright - Least liked by us all, could have left it, sorry! Blander, funny taste..
Spenwood - very nice
Wensleydale & Truffle - Loved this
Young Buck - Liked even by "Non-blue" tasters
Belinda D.
As always our Christmas cheese treat did not disappoint!
The Baron Bigod is a must and we LOVE it!
Thank you Perry!
Maurice L.
Bloomin' delicious! The perfect Christmas treat.
Humphrey C.
The care and detail behind all of the work for these packages is wonderful! The selection of cheese was delicious, such great variety for all different types of cheese lovers! Also loved the cured sausage and chutney that came with it too! Love getting this box of treats for Christmas! Thanks so much Rennet and Rind!
Emma
absolutely loved it.
Paul W.
Great cheeses, everyone enjoyed them, and arrived on time before Christmas, will definitely be com ing back. thank you.
Stephen D.
Honestly superb, bought as a present for a cheese lover and they were raving about how good it was (and having tried it I agree), brilliantly curated, excellent notes. Honestly superlative.
Sara G.
Perfect Christmas cheese board. This is the second year I have ordered and wasn’t disappointed.
Jo Q.
Great idea to share at Xmas. There was a great variety of cheeses to eat - all super tasty - and our favourite was the Brie which was delicious!
Victoria P.
This is the second year we have ordered Christmas cheese and it doesn’t disappoint
Wendy M.
Sublime! Absolutely sublime. Beyond my greatest expectations!
Claudia S.
Fabulous selection of cheeses! We loved them all, honestly one of the best online purchases. We are delighted to discover Rennet and Rind and grateful for the passion and dedication in creating and selecting wonderful cheeses.
Will definitely recommend and buy again.
Sharon I.
Packed beautifully, with care, shame about the delivery to be honest who put it on the floor in rain and it got soaking wet. The bag inside was unharmed so that was ok. I’m not a cheese fan as such this was a gift for my husband. With a mystery box you get a range of cheese, next time I will get specific cheeses so I can indulge too. Will get some more in the New Year.
Anne C.
An excellent extended family Christmas Eve experience cheese tasting with Perry’s video. We loved all the cheeses and it was great taking time to savour each one.
Karen B.
Delicious and arrived exactly as requested.
Fiona B.
My first experience of Rennet and Rind and it was really good. The team were extremely resposnsive to all my emails and the Xmas cheese selection was fantastic!!! We'll do it again next year for sure. Many thanks!
Cath T.
Loved the cheese - super selection and delicious. Apple butter was also a perfect accompaniment. I was a little disappointed at the charcuterie- for £20 I expected more than a single salami. Especially given the photographs. But I wouldn’t hesitate to buy cheese from you again
Kate B.
What a fantastic cheese box! A beautiful selection of cheeses which were thoroughly enjoyed by the family at Christmas. I really enjoyed reading through the leaflet which described the flavours etc. 3rd year ordering one, will definitely be getting one next year too!
Gary L.
Brilliant choice, was brought as a Xmas present. Amazing service and delivery.
Sheira
Amazing selection, service, and choices
Jasmin A.
Beautifully curated selection of British Cheeses; and loved the whole saucisson this year. The whole family looks forward to this as a Christmas treat, a new tradition has been started. See you next year!
Suzanne W.
This was a Christmas present for my Cheese loving partner, he says.........A great selection of cheeses, some of which I had never heard of before which is a great thing to discover. Baron Bigod and Rollright were particular favourites, Young Buck was a new one and delicious but they were all fantastic. Thank you
