Helloo! We’re currently giving the Sharpham website a much needed refresh, which means we need to take it offline for a few days!

It’ll be back soon, bigger and better. Thank you for your patience if you’re trying to buy cheese and accompaniments. We’ll let you know just as soon as we’re back!

Food Drink Devon is a fantastic, supportive community of like-minded local businesses that we love being part of!

Last night was the annual awards shindig and we were delighted to come home with four awards. But it’s not just about the awards, it’s about being part of something bigger, feeling at home in a room of 400 people and being able to call many of them friends and collaborators.

Thanks to the organising team, incredible chefs, Exeter College students and front-of-house who all made it such a special - and delicious- night at Sandy Park.

🏆 Gold for Rustic and Ticklemore.
🏆 Platinum for Cremet and Washbourne.

Don’t they look good on our office shelves!

These two cheerful cheese men, Sharpham owner Greg and Head Cheesemaker Pete, spent the day in the grand surroundings of Freemasons Hall in London for the annual ‘Meet The Makers’ trade only event, hosted by Harvey & Brockless.

Always a fantastic event, we shared our cheeses alongside over 40 fellow producers, and caught up with folk from around our wonderful cheese community.

It’s October already. Thoughts are turning towards Christmas out there!

FILLING THE TANKS | Head Cheesemaker Pete has around five seconds to swiftly move the milk pipe from one full tank over to an empty one.

Piping in the rich, creamy and super-fresh Jersey milk from the big tank next door - where it was delivered before dawn - is the very first stage of making cheese.

Pete can’t afford to trip up!

Guild of Fine Food GOLDEN FORKS | What a spectacular event it was last night! The foodie Oscars indeed. No, we didn’t win the Golden Fork for Better Business, but it really did make us realise just what an achievement it was to be one of the three Nominees! Plus we got a big certificate.

Sharpham’s London-based support crew aka. daughter Mollie and son Dan, accompanied Greg to represent the business and help share tasters of our 3-Star Ticklemore drizzled with honey (try it!)

Congratulations to all the worthy winners last night. It was an honour to be in your esteemed company.

Great to catch up with foodie friends including Nigel Barden and Patrick McGuigan and new ones too, Ned Palmer.

🏆 Tonight’s the night! It’s time for the ‘Oscars of the food world!’

Our Sharpham team is heading to London for the Golden Fork Awards presented by Guild of Fine Food and we’ve got plenty to celebrate already.

Two of our cheeses, Savour and Ticklemore, were awarded 3-star Great Taste Awards this year - putting them in the category: “Extraordinarily tasty. Just 2% of products are awarded three stars each year. Buy it!”

And tonight we’re incredibly proud to be one of just three finalists for the Golden Fork Better Business Award, recognising businesses that demonstrate outstanding and responsible business practices, and making a positive difference through the way they work.

Now it’s time to put on our glad rags, catch up with foodie friends and colleagues from across the UK and around the world, and enjoy a brilliant evening celebrating the very best of food and drink.

Whatever happens tonight, we’re delighted to be there.

Wish us luck!

FIGS + CHEESE | September is fig season – good news for Sharpham cheese lovers!

Figs are at their best right now when they’re soft, sweet and jammy.

Their natural sweetness and gentle acidity make them the perfect foil for the creamy, savoury richness of our soft cheeses such as Sharpham Brie, and especially our decadent triple-cream Elmhirst. Such a delicious pairing!

No fresh figs? No problem. Our Sharpham Fig & Pinot Noir Chutney brings all that sticky, fruity flavour to your cheeseboard and elsewhere in your kitchen!

Other ways to use our fig chutney…

🌻 Add to toasties, sandwiches, or warm baguettes.
🌻 Spoon onto roast pork, lamb, or duck.
🌻 Pair with charcuterie and pâté.
🌻 Use as a glaze for sausages or baked cheeses.
🌻 Add to savoury tarts or filo parcels.
