Sussex Charmer is the marriage of two very separate cheese production methods, each one ancient and prestigious in its own right. Combining the creaminess of a mature farmhouse cheddar with the zing of an Italian-style hard cheese, this versatile cheese is a stunning addition to the cheese board.

We were both delighted and honoured that Waitrose chose to feature Sussex Charmer so strongly in their amazing Christmas TV advert with Kiera Knightley and Joe Wilkinson. It was the cheese that they fell in love with over the Waitrose Deli counter.

Sussex Charmer is the marriage of two very separate cheese production methods, each one ancient and prestigious in its own right.

Combining the creaminess of a mature farmhouse cheddar with the zing of an Italian Style Hard Cheese, this versatile cheese is a stunning addition to the cheese board. In 2008, it won Best New Dairy Product at the largest cheese awards in the world, hosted in Nantwich, Cheshire. It has since gone on to win a further 12 Golds at these International Cheese and Dairy Awards and claiming Best Catering Cheese in Show in 2014 and 2023.

In 2017, it was awarded Best British Cheddar at the prestigious Quality Food Awards.

Sussex Charmer has the perfect taste credentials to complement fruit of any description. Its long taste profile in the kitchen soon becomes a chef’s best friend. Endowed with great meltability, it adds a sublimely creamy taste when grated over pasta. Our famous signature dish ‘Charmer on Toast’ has no rivals, as many will vouch!

Storage: Eat within three weeks of opening, wrap in grease-proof paper, place in air tight container in the fridge.

Suitable for vegetarians and home freezing.

Available in 100g, 200g, 500g, 800g and 1kg grated.

  22. Keith Arthur (verified owner) –

    After a period of cheesy abstinence I have returned to my senses…and Sussex Charmer. Now I realise what I’ve been missing. I treated a friend to some and she is now hooked. My next order will include some blue and my downfall will be complete.

  23. gillian m –

    We first heard about Sussex Charmer on a TV programme and were then surprised to find it in our local co-op here in Devon. We had been buying it regularly until it became unavailable due to delivery problems. We then ordered online. The cheese arrived in perfect condition and has been enjoyed over Christmas. Will definitely order again.

  24. Ian L –

    Excellent delivery experience for an excellent cheese. My daughter has even asked for Sussex Charmer Cheese for Christmas after I gave some to my children and their families last Christmas 😂

  25. Ross E –

    My go-to, every day cheese of choice. Always delicious.

  26. Sonia L –

    Excellent creamy delicious cheese, fabulous on melted cheese on toast, delivered with care and speed.

  27. Louah R –

    This is the best cheddar cheese ever tasted, but the problem is with the delivery. Every time we order 2 x 800g x2 and get delivered only 2. Then I have to call for the missing 2 to get delivered, so maybe delivery can be free under £50 after all.

  28. Linda W –

    Gorgeous.

  29. J E R –

    The recipient of my gift wrote: Sussex Charmer gets a thumbs skyward from me. And goes exceptionally well with steak.

  30. Janice H –

    My favourite cheddar. Delivery as stated.

  31. Michael C –

    Lovely cheese, had it before and will definitely buy again once I have got through the 2 kilos I recently bought. Mike.

  32. Margaret G –

    Easy website to navigate, quick and efficient delivery. Vegetarian options available.

  33. Hilary P –

    Cheese superb. Would have been five stars except delivery driver didn’t ring the bell and left my cheese on the doorstep.

  34. Patricia H –

    Lovely flavour as usual.

  35. Ross E –

    Quite simply my favourite cheese, and very versatile.

  36. Lindsay A –

    Always prompt and efficient service. Sussex Charmer is always in my fridge and used for many recipes.

  37. John A –

    Very good – as usual. Dispatched quickly after order made. Slight problem was that packaging was damaged so goods not as chilled as perhaps they should have been. Possibly firmer packaging required.

  38. Fiona S –

    Very easy!

  39. Sharon S –

    Great product and quick delivery.

  40. Janice H –

    Quick efficient service as usual. Best cheddar around made with their own milk.

  41. Vibeke S –

    The cheese arrived quickly as usual, all good there. The Sussex Charmer is lovely as we expect but the Twineham Grange was disappointing. It was nowhere near as flavourful as normal, could almost call it bland. We understand that it can vary but this batch was not up to scratch.

  42. Sharon S –

    Great product and great service.

  43. anne v –

    I love this cheese and the fact it is produced locally AND I can buy it directly from the source in such an easy way makes it even more attractive!

  44. Laura W –

    Delivered quickly and superb quality, very tasty.

  45. Serena W –

    Delicious. Swift delivery.

  46. K R –

    The cheese is amazing, good flavour and texture.

  47. Ross E –

    Nom, nom, nom.

  48. Gabrielle K –

    Excellent cheese and good customer service.

  49. Janet H –

    Fabulous strong cheese. Ideal for cheese on toast and also for a quick snack when peckish.

  50. Robert T –

    Received on time. But unfortunately received 3 x Twineham Grange? It is good but not what I wanted. More of a cooking cheese, so lots of Quiches perhaps!

  51. Rita S –

    Was sent as a gift. Nice to get a photo of delivery to confirm delivery. The Charmer did its job and now you have a new fan. Fantastic cheese!

  52. leigh H –

    Best Cheddar type cheese you can buy!

  53. Robert T –

    Such a great cheese! Easy to order and delivery quick and simple!

  54. Richard O –

    Disappointing that a superb, creamy and finely flavoured cheese WILL NOT SLICE FROM RECEIPT BUT ALWAYS CRUMBLES! WHY?

  55. leigh H –

    Best ‘cheddar’ type cheese you can buy!

  56. Trevor C –

    My order came well packed and secured. I have bought Sussex charmer many times so I new it would be great tasting. I used these to be part of a wedding cake cheese stack at Bartholomew Barn. Thanks so much Cruickshank’s Catering

  57. John A –

    Both types of cheese good, as usual. Not so sure about the new(ish) eco packaging. Delivery was delayed by 24hrs by couriers. Hence cheese not chilled.

  58. Brian S –

    Nice cheese, delivered promptly.

  59. William S –

    Really nice product. An organic range would be nice too in future but nonetheless I was exceptionally happy with my order 🙂 😃

  60. leigh H –

    Delicious cheese, and very fast delivery.

  61. Christine W –

    As a vegetarian I really appreciate this flavoursome cheese to have with pasta dishes and sprinkled in soup..

  62. Kevin R –

    The best of its type and far superior to ‘supermarket’ offerings like C****dral City or P***ims Ch**ce. I love this cheese and so do all my friends.

  63. leigh H –

    We have been buying this cheese for a few years. It’s delicious if you like a rich dry ‘cheddar’ without the slimy taste you get with so many poor quality cheeses. Perfect for eating and cooking.

  64. Emma H –

    Our favourite cheese because it’s so versatile & also delicious! Always super fast dispatch & delivery too. Thank you.

  65. Robert B –

    This is my favourite cheese by a long way. Absolutely delicious.

  66. Gilda Lombardi Magari Group l –

    Excellent cheese, perfect on our ragù pasta @Magari_Bristol!

  67. Vibeke S –

    Love this cheese. Shame you don’t come to the Hampshire Farmers Market any more but at least we can have it delivered and it always arrives fairly quickly.

  68. Kim S –

    Excellent product with really friendly and helpful customer service.

  69. Thea M –

    This cheese is delicious. It is also healthier because it is made from the milk from grazing cows. This means less of the inflammatory Omega 6 and more of the anti-inflammatory Omega 3. The purchase process is straightforward and delivery is reliable.

  70. Susan P –

    Love this cheese so much my husband and I just love it so much don’t worry now I’ve discovered it I will be getting more can’t run out of this beautiful cheese.

  71. Diana O –

    Very prompt delivery on the day and at the time expected.

  72. Janice H –

    Five star cheese & five star service!

  73. Margaret D –

    Excellent as usual

  74. Emma H –

    Our favourite cheese, delivered in next to no time. Thank you.

  75. sharon s –

    Great product and fast delivery, thank you.

  76. Gabrielle K –

    Still awaiting a response to my email enquiry about the source of milk for Twineham cheese but am very pleased with Sussex Charmer.

  77. Deborah R –

    Efficient

  78. Ross E –

    Fantastic flavour and a very versatile cheese. Nom, nom, nom!

  79. william f –

    Easy to order, quick delivery, still nice and cool on arrival. Wonderful cheese inside!

  80. Emma H –

    Our favourite cheese! We haven’t bought anything else for a few years now.

  81. Godfrey L –

    Excellent products that we order the Cheese and slightly salted butter, Delivery time has changed from next day to the day after the next day with the minimum order now fifty pounds to get free delivery slightly disappointing.

  82. leigh H –

    Excellent service, and delicious cheese.

  83. BERNARD R –
