Cheese Bored?
 

There’s a new Quince of Darkness
 

Rich, balsamicky, and sweet Balsajo Black Garlic is the new must-have accompaniment on your cheese board this Christmas.
 

Black Garlic tastes incredible with bread and different cheeses; it’s a flavour explosion of figs, raisins, balsamic vinegar, caramel and of course roasted garlic flavours.  Simply spread a clove straight onto your chosen cheese on the vessel of your choice (usually crackers or bread) and bite in for a flavour sensation.
 

“Balsajo Black Garlic is the flavour accompaniment of choice this year. Move over chutney there’s a new quince of darkness in town. Black garlic not only looks really awesome on your cheeseboard but it taste absolutely incredible, and if conversation is starting to flag it offers an interesting and informative talking point. Don’t say I’m not good to you.” Says Katy Heath Managing Director of Black Garlic. “Not that Christmas is really the time to be thinking about health but Black Garlic also offers a delicious opportunity to get some superfood credentials on to your dining room table.”
