I have always been a wensleydale and mature cheddar girl in the past but was bought a naice cheese board for christmas and thought I'd give them a go. Oh my god - they are delicious especially the blue stilton and the brie! What other cheeses should I try to continue my cheesey education?!!

Blacksticks and Garstang Blue are both lovely stinky cheeses, local to the northwest. Delicious.

A Camembert, left out of the fridge for a least 12 hrs is far far superior to a Brie. Heavenly.

Stop it you beasts! Stop it! This is torture! I've just been told by my GP that my vestibular migraines (extreme vertigo) are probably triggered by...stinky cheeses!! And...chocolate!! And they're my two favourite things of all time.

Stinking Bishop (yes really, it's divine!)
Another vote for Camembert - leaves Brie standing!

Hatespiders you poor thing :(
not that I particularly like stinky cheeses as such, its just that good cheese is often stinky! -
I really didn't like Stinking Bishop - too much hype

Snap, usual Grin I have been known to eat an entire wedge of St Agur in a single sitting.

Also Tomme de Savoie - not particularly stinky but so, so flavourful.

If you're in or near London go to the Neals Yard Dairy in Borough Market and try amazing stinky cheeses. My favourite is St Judes
