The Christmas Dinner Wensleydale offers a unique taste experience, combining traditional roast dinner flavours in cheese form.
Each bite delivers a carefully crafted blend of sage, thyme and garlic, complemented by sweet cranberries to recreate the essence of a classic roast.
For wine enthusiasts, Lidl’s Master of Wine, Richard Bampfield, suggested pairing the cheese with their Vino Nobile de Montepulciano, priced at £9.99, for an enhanced tasting experience.
The combination promises to deliver the comforting flavours of a traditional Christmas dinner in an innovative cheese format.
For those with a sweet tooth, the Christmas Pudding Wensleydale offers a distinctly British twist on traditional festive flavours. The cheese is crafted using locally sourced milk and features a unique blend of ginger and tangy fruit.
A zesty orange marmalade finish adds a refreshing sweetness to the distinctive Wensleydale base. This innovative creation combines the beloved flavours of a classic Christmas pudding with the creamy texture of Yorkshire’s famous cheese variety.
The festive range also includes several other uniquely flavoured cheeses, all priced at £2.49.
Among these are an Aged Red Leicester with Scotch Bonnet and Tomato for those seeking a spicier option. The collection includes festively-shaped varieties including a Cheddar & Onion Star and a Smoked Christmas Tree cheese.
A Cheddar with Black Garlic rounds out the seasonal selection, offering another distinctive flavour combination.
