This Thursday’s ‘Your Voice’ on @blackcatradio I talk to Perry James Wakeman who is a highly accomplished cheese expert and the Chief of Cheese at award-winning Rennet & Rind in Cambridge. Perry's expertise in cheese-making is recognised on a global level, and he’s a vehement advocate for the British artisan cheese industry. His expertise was honed through both refinement, experimentation and study with some of the world’s seasoned affineurs.
In 2022, his dedication to the craft was awarded the distinguished title of ‘Affineur of the Year’ for the first two consecutive years of the competition being held.
Discover this plus the world’s greatest music, by clicking on the link below and listen between 11am and 12 midday, on Thursday. Hope you can tune in, online, on the app, on the smart speaker, and streamlining all over the world.

They say good things come in threes! First, we were named one of the top cheese shops in the country by The Times. Now, Rennet & Rind has been honored as an Inspirational Cheese Retailer of the Year.
I can't help but wonder, what's next for us?
There aren’t many businesses that can claim to be award-winning from when they very first opened their doors, but Stamford’s @rennetandrind certainly can.

You’ve been living a cheese lie. Namely, a Red Leicester lie. Why? Because you have never tried a proper Red Leicester until you’ve eaten a piece of Sparkenhoe.

Some legendary profiles have emerged over the last few months. From the hyper-deep Killeen, the complexity of a particular sharp note in Old Roan or crystals of the Lyburn.

This pic from @rennetandrind’s last tweet is a fantastic closeup of a bandage-wrapped cheese. I’ll be talking more about bandage wrapping in the upcoming episode on cheddar and similar cheeses, but the tl;dr is the process helps seal in moisture and also manage rind mold.

As an affineur, I'm always on the lookout for new ways to enhance the flavour and quality of cheese. So, when I received a call from my friends at Curlew Dairy about a maturing project they were putting on, I was more than happy to oblige. buff.ly/3XPAYWc
