Green Thunder

I’m a big fan of a good garlic and herb cheese, I can’t say I’ve tried loads from different producers, but this is by far the nicest one I have come across! 100% will be buying more of this!

Nothing to dislike. It comes from Wales!

But it did not arrive in a refrigerated vehicle and was quite warm

Love all the Snowdonia cheeses.

I 1st tried this cheese when I was in Wales but find it hard to get here in London.. love it, but is a little expensive.. I'm quite sure my cousin didn't pay that for it in the butcher's where he got it from on Wales.. but it does taste real good though 😊😁

What a great cheese one for the Christmas cheese board, it has a creamy texture and smooth (at room temp is best) but with a bite back with the smell and taste of garlic, also great for keeping vampires (and friends away). it would also make a great xmas gift for a cheese lover I wish I could give it six stars. thanks for a little piece of heaven

Great flavour especially for garlic lovers

Was a little surprised the actual size when it arrived given the price, in as much as it was very small. However, I guess as it's a luxury cheese that was to be expected. On the quality and taste front, delicious, undoubtedly.

Was shipped fast and greatly packaged everything was as said. Pricey for not even a half pound but its so good that if I have to pay more I will when I have too.

The cheese is very tasty, with a balanced, wonderful flavor. It is creamy, long aftertaste, perfect on cheeseboard.

This review is for the Snowdonia Little Black Bomber and Green Thunder cheeses from Wales. A few years ago, my wife and I stopped in Betws-y-Coed for a few days. On a beautiful, sunny afternoon, we visited a local cheese shop for a snack to take on a streamside walk in the hills above town. I chose a nice wedge of Black Bomber, which is an extra-sharp cheddar. Delicious! Of course, the afternoon and the beautiful location may have contributed to my memory, but, whatever the reason, it stuck with me. Since our local cheese shop doesn’t carry any Welsh cheese, I decided to look on-line and was please to find I could order “Little Black Bomber” from Amazon. When placing my order, I also noticed the Snowdonia Green Thunder, which is described as a “creamy mature cheddar with garlic and garden herbs”, so I added that. I ordered the cheeses on October 22 and they were delivered November 25. I was nervous about the long delivery time and the warning on the Amazon web page. The padded envelope they came in was marked “Air Mail”, however, so perhaps they weren’t in transit that long. In any case, inside the envelope the cheeses were both in what seemed to be a vacuum-sealed bag. Opening that, I found the wax coatings had a slimy-feeling dampness on them, and the wax on the Green Thunder had about a one-inch shallow gash in it, exposing the cheese beneath. I wiped off the wax and refrigerated both. I am please to say that, in spite of my doubts, both cheeses served up very nicely. I suspect they were a little worse for wear due to the time they spent unrefrigerated, but they were still very good. I would order them again, but would recommend not doing so in warm weather. If you like sharp cheddars, the Little Black Bomber is a great choice. It has a rich, nutty flavor that is and excellent example of Welsh cheese. I don’t remember the cheese we had in Betws-y-Coed being quite as crumbly as the one from Amazon, but that may be because it was fresher. The Green Thunder also had an excellent flavor and, in fact, exceeded my expectations. It was very creamy in spite of the “extra aging”, and the garlic and herbs were a tasty complement to the cheese itself.

Loved this product ever since I came across it while in London on business. The texture is crumbly with an incredible cheddar and chive flavor. My wife and I are keeping everything made by Snowdonia on our date night short list. It also pairs well with anything red or high acid + miniraly white. My wife thinks it could work with a Riesling well too.

7 oz of cheese for $45.00 is too much.
