IJ Mellis Cheesemonger

Listed in The Larder – in the shops now or buy online.

Iain Mellis has six shops in Scotland, though each has an individual feel, with rounds of cheese stacked high and staff in traditional aprons. The main focus is on farmhouse cheeses from around the UK and Ireland – Fife’s Anster standing proud among them – along with select continental cheeses. Other delicacies, from olive oil to eggs, are also available. Staff are friendly, and always eager to impart their knowledge of cheese to help with your decision.
