5 reasons why you should sign up for a cheese subscription box

Last year I signed up for a Pong Cheese subscription and it’s the best thing I’ve ever done! I didn’t even know there was such a thing, so you can imagine my delight when my first box arrived.

A cheese subscription box is a must for any cheese lover whether you love to have your friends over for a cheese and wine night or you just like to have a chunk of cheese in the fridge for snacking on. They also make a great gift if you’re looking for something off-the-wall – hint hint.

Need more convincing? Here are 5 reasons why you should sign up for a cheese subscription box:

1. Receive regular deliveries of cheese straight to your door

Cheese lovers, rejoice! You don’t need to hunt down a cheesemonger to get your regular cheese fix, high-quality cheese can come to you. Sign up to a cheese subscription box and receive a regular cheese delivery straight to your door.

Most subscription boxes offer a variety of delivery options so it’s up to you how frequently you receive your box. The options are usually along the lines of monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly and annually. Personally, I prefer the monthly option because it’s usually pay as you go and you’re not tied into anything so you can cancel at any time.

2. Great opportunity to discover new cheeses

Subscription boxes offer a great opportunity for you to try out new cheeses. These aren’t your usual run-of-the-mill varieties from the deli counter, you’ll get to try obscure cheeses from artisan producers from around the world. Each selection is usually accompanied with detailed information sheets and tasting notes which are a helpful guide.

3. Special offers available

Keep an eye out for special offers. Pong Cheese is currently giving you 50% off your first box and most subscriptions offer free delivery.

4. Some boxes can be customised

If you have specific preferences some boxes can be customised helping you create the perfect cheeseboard. Blue cheese and goat’s cheese aren’t everyone’s cup of tea but thankfully most subscriptions allow you to exclude them. Some of them also give you the option to make your cheese selection vegetarian or pregnancy-friendly to suit your dietary needs.

5. Lots of subscriptions to choose from

There is a wide range of subscriptions to choose from including Pong Cheese, The Cheese Shed, Paxton & Whitfield, The Cheese Society and many more. The subscriptions are usually pretty flexible with various options available depending on your budget and preferences. For best value for money, I would recommend Pong Cheese which costs £22 a month for 4 different kinds of cheeses and you can go premium for an extra £7.
