the best cheese

[the s star]

best cheese in the world?

[funkychicken]

extra creamy brie (but not too ripe) or wensleydale. I hate blue cheeses and goats cheese

[Laura-sakura]

brie

[Philtaz]

Marks & Spencer one Christmas made a mature cheddar with whiskey.  It was divine.  Haven't seen it since!

I'm with Katejess - stinkier the better.  A lovely wet Roquefort for me every time.

[Headtime]

Stinking Bishop all the way!

Davidstow definitely.

[flip-it]

There was a thing on the radio recently about world cheese awards, Gryere was voted worlds best.

Roquefort...but closely followed by a really good Stilton (with an equally good Port). After that it would have to be a good mature Cheddar. Don't know what is so special about Davidstow but I buy it all the time these days and love it.

Sorry, I answered the wrong question, the BEST cheese in the world is Cheddar, emmental is simply my favourite.

Philadelphia

Monkland Dairy Little Hereford - like a cheddar but artisan made in small batches.

First - any guesses as to why the question was edited?

 

I once bought some amazing cheese from Harrods (couldn't really afford it, but BOY was it worth it!!)  Perfect brie, with a layer of wonderful roquefort in the middle.  So a roquefort sandwich with brie as the bread.  Mmmmmmmmmm!

 

However, my answer/vote is: goats cheese (melted)

[lara131]

Goats cheese is blatantly the king of all cheeses

[Otrere]

Roquefort is vile. I had it melted on steak once in a restaurant in Paris (the dish came with melted Roquefort on) - made me feel queasy and had to scrape it all off - completely ruined my steak!

I find that you cant beat a good old fashioned English cheese like Red Leicester or Double Gloucester.  As for foreign cheese I like a nice blue brie, with fresh crusty bread! (and butter).

[palfreyman18]

emmental, gruyere, jarlsberg, or gouda

[Quicksilver]

Ribblesdale, made from goats milk. No contest.

[babkin]

Either a good strong Roquefort (Papillon) on a digestive biscuit spread with butter or a very old Mimolette this is a very dark orange northen French edam cheeese that is very, very hard but tastes like caramel.

[keenu]

Gruyere, hands down!
