Someone I know really likes cheese, so in lieu of any other ideas, and because there is a local market having a cheese event in the near future, I'm considering getting him cheese as a gift.
The trouble is, I'm not quite sure what cheeses make good/bad gifts, for example is it highly perishable, how much is an appropriate amount, which cheeses are actually impressive and worth pushing the boat out a bit for?
(I'm aware this isn't a perfect fit for this board, however of the Stack Exchange website this was the most appropriate)
Best Answer
Don't; you don't know his taste.
Get him something related to the cheese instead like a small specialty knife (Girolle) or wood/slate platter or books.
If you want to get something edible, get some good honey, quince "cheese", chutneys or nuts.
