A similar cheese combination is marketed by Coombe Castle International as Saxon Shire or Saxon Shires.

Famous quotes containing the word cheese:

    A cheese may disappoint. It may be dull, it may be naive, it may be oversophisticated. Yet it remains cheese, milk’s leap toward immortality.
    Clifton Fadiman (b. 1904)
