Tyne Chease

This is the best vegan cheese I have ever tried. It is really exceptional, the quality and presentation are excellent and I have even found it to impress non vegan cheese connoisseurs. I tend to not buy it regularly because the price is quite high though it is worth every penny and is a must for special occasions.

Small, local and independent hand made vegan cheese made from cultured cashew nuts and other natural ingredients. Having sampled and purchased their products at local vegan fayres I have to say this cheese is something special. Very special. My great local Happy Cow colleague "Dead Pledge" recently purchased the complete range of cheases and cannot speak of them highly enough. At first you had to be prepared to pay £9.95 for a piece of art presented in a circular balsa wood box or 2 for £18. Yes, its pricey but I can imagine a lot of work needs to go into each product so as a special treat it's definitely worth it. However, in the first quarter of 2016 prices have been reviewed to a much more reasonable £7.95. This is truly great news and will be sure to attract more business. Vegan cheese has come a long way since the Cheezly days. Tyne Chease hopefully has a great future ahead and has obviously worked on making those prices a bit more competitive since my original review in 2015. For me it's up there with Vegusto as one of the UK market leaders. By the way, you can also freeze it!

I'm originally from Glasgow and always heard people talking about this cheese whenever there were vegan festival in Scotland. Little did I realise that - now living in Newcastle - I had easy access to their cheese whenever I wanted!

It's a little pricey but absolutely delicious. Goes great on crackers but also made into a cheese sauce as it melts great. It's freezable too so great to portion out and get your money's worth as mine went out of date just a couple weeks after I bougt it (which is understandable considering the ingredients)
