Our Cheese

Smoked Cheese

At the Weald Smokery, we make truly great English cheese even better

We smoke our cheeses in traditional brick kilns over local oak chippings. This allows the cheese to develop a delicate smoky quality that enhances their distinctive flavours.

“We have achieved a reputation for our wonderful selection of local and traditional farmhouse cheeses from the UK and Europe. Do come and try.” Emma, Shop Assistant

Smoked Vintage Cheddar

Smoked Stilton

Smoked Goodweald

We smoke this for The Traditional Cheese Dairy in East Sussex, a local hard farmhouse cheese, rich, full-bodied with a pleasant toasted aroma.

Smoked Mayfield

The very popular locally-made Mayfield cheese, smoked by us, achieving a subtle oakiness.

Creamy, gentle blue cheese from the local Kingcott Dairy, Staplehurst, Kent.

Made by local cheesemaker, Alsop & Walker, it is an Emmental-style cheese, sweet, nutty and creamy, which has won many awards.

Black Bomber

Olde Sussex

Olde Sussex is made by the local Traditional Cheese Dairy and has an open and bouncy texture. This cheese is wonderfully deep, rich and creamy with a superb tang.

Cheeses for Entertaining

We have selected classic British cheese for entertaining. These are whole cheeses you can have available to cut into for an occasion or simply to have during the festive period. Subject to availability.

Colston Bassett Stilton

A classic stilton, rich and velvety smooth.

Cheddar Truckles - West Country Wookey Hole

Cloth-bound, which allows the cheese to breath as it matures and develops its earthy profile. Ideal to dig into over a long festive time.

Burwash Rose

A semi-soft, locally made, washed rind cheese, unpasteurised, creamy and sticky with a pungent aroma, it melts in the mouth.

Sussex Brie

A whole brie, made locally. Subtle smooth finish with a hint of nuttiness.

Vacherin Mont d’Or

This seasonal cheese is made from the milk of cows coming down from the mountain as the summer comes to an end, resulting in producing a soft, rich, quick-ripening cheese. It is encircled in spruce bark. It can be cut or spooned straight from the box.

Lord London

Made with pasteurised cow’s milk from local farms, Lord London has a clean citrus taste with an edible white rind. Unlike many cheeses this can be eaten straight from the fridge. To bake, cut the top off and stuff the bottom with herbs and garlic!

Our Fish

Smoked Salmon

The Great Taste Awards judges have given our smoked salmon numerous gold awards over the years.

All our salmon is reared for us on the west coast of Scotland, where the cold water produces strong, healthy fish with firm, even-textured flesh. Cold-smoked over local oak chippings in our traditional brick kilns, the fish takes on a delicate colour and subtle, smoky flavour. Browse and buy our finest Smoked Salmon online, today.

"I can still tell the difference between our smoked salmon and others on the market." William Wickham, Son

Whist this may look like a whole side, we have actually sliced it for you, to peel off in layers.

Gravad Lax

Cured in a marinade of salt and sugar, with the inspired addition of fresh dill creating its distinctive sweet-and-sour flavour.

Gravad Lax means ‘buried salmon’, and fishermen traditionally did just that, salting then burying their catch on the beach to preserve it over winter.

We replicate this process by carefully wrapping the fish, dry-curing, based on an old Scandinavian recipe using fresh dill rather than dried, and leave under weights, to achieve the appropriate texture. Buy your Gravad Lax online today and experience its unique flavour.

"Simple and utterly faithful to the original, the flavour is beautifully balanced - perfect served on its own or with a dill sauce. " Jo, Shop Manager

Hot Roast Salmon

A Weald Smokery classic consistently winning National Awards

We take salmon sourced by us from Scotland’s west coast, gently cold-smoke it overnight, then hot-smoke it first thing the next morning. The two processes complement each other perfectly: The result; hot roast smoked salmon with a unique blend of texture and taste that not only won us a 3 star gold, but also resulted in our Head smoker being runner up in the Master of Crafts award.

"…cold smoking first produces a firm flesh that’s easy to slice, while the hot smoking stage adds further colour, and depth and complexity to the flavour."Andrew, Owner.

Smoked Rainbow Trout

Another Great Taste Gold Award winner

A favourite amongst our customers. Our Rainbow Trout is hot smoked over local oak logs producing a firm flesh and a subtle smoky taste, rich in healthy omega-3s.

"The attention to detail is amazing."George, Post Grad Employee

Smoked Freshwater Eel

Once an English staple, freshwater eels are now a delicacy.

We select mature silver eels from reputable, sustainable sources, then hot-smoke them over oak, giving our smoked eel a subtle yet intense flavour. They're rich, firm, meaty and moreish, and you’ll find a little goes a long way.

"…a fantastic starter, a hearty addition to salads, or a great alternative to smoked mackerel"Andrew, Owner

Smoked Haddock

We create our smoked haddock fillets using cold smoke from a fire of oak shavings, and that most precious commodity these days: time.

In fact, our haddock fillets stay in our traditional brick kiln overnight, allowing them to take on a rich, smoky flavour and delicate golden colour gently and naturally.

"…Of all our products the smoked haddock shows off traditional smoking at its best. The natural deep yellow colour we create through smoking is the one that dye manufacturers are trying to emulate."Andrew, Owner

Craster Kippers

A traditional and trusted method makes this a simple yet delicious tasting fish
Like many English foods, the Craster kipper takes its name from its place of origin – in this case, a small fishing town on the Northumberland coast. The North Sea herrings, known locally as ‘silver darlings’, are cured in brine, then smoked over oak for about 16 hours to produce a deep, smoky taste and a rich, golden colour.
"…Craster folk like their smoked kippers to look like fish, so they leave the head on – a fine tradition we’re happy to respect"Dan, Assistant Manager

Smoked Mackerel

Smoked Mackerel Fillets, hot smoked over oak log fires. This traditional method of smoking produces a smooth texture and a subtle oaky taste. Rich in flavour and packed full of healthy Omega 3.

"The Smoked Mackerel was lovely. A delicate flavour, lovely texture and enough to stretch to two lunches." Wayne Hall, Customer

Shellfish

Our new smoked mussels have already been recognised by The Great Taste Awards. Something to be very proud of in 2019.

Smoked Duck Breasts

Our duck has a naturally rich flavour, which we enhance further by curing it with our special in-house mix including herbs and bay leaves winning Best Speciality Food Product in South East England at The Great Taste Awards.

The cured duck breasts are hot smoked over an oak fire, where they then spend further time in the kiln, steeping in the fresh, fragrant smoke.

"The finely cooked meat is tender and juicy. The flavours of the marinade and the oak combine nicely in the mouth. Make sure you try some" Dan, Head Smoker

Smoked Chicken Breasts

We are confident you have never tasted chicken with a depth of flavour like our Smoked Chicken Breasts.

Our chicken breasts are hot smoked over an oak fire so they are cooked, suitable to be eaten cold. A further hour in the oak smoke produces a subtle yet robust flavour, bringing depth and intensity to starters, salads and sandwiches.

"Our smoked chicken has an incredibly deep flavour and can be bought as a whole breast or in packs of two." Ian, Smokery Manager

Smoked Venison

Deer are plentiful in the Weald of Kent – vast tracts of it were once royal hunting forest – so venison has been enjoyed here for centuries.

We take big, lean haunch cuts, cure them with our own blend of ingredients, then cold-smoke them over oak shavings for up to seven days.

"...This long, painstaking process gently draws out moisture, giving the smoked venison a similar texture to Parma ham, and an intense yet delicate flavour and colour all of its own"Dan, Head Smoker

Sussex Cooked Ham

Ham, cooked on the premises.

We cook our ham on the premises, using unhurried, traditional methods, locking in moisture and flavour. A whole ham, either on or off the bone, is a thing of beauty that will feed a crowd, whilst a few slices, hand-carved and packed by us, will elevate a salad, and is an essential ingredient in a sandwich.
