I.J. MELLIS
Read moreThe French know too little, and too little, about British cheeses. Yet the British, let alone the Scots, have excellent cheeses. The Mellis cheese makers are more than convinced of this and offer high quality farmhouse cheeses in their shops, matured to perfection. Learn about the differences between the different cheddars, the different blue... Isle of Mull cheddar, Loch Arthur cheddar, Lanark Blue, Clava Brie... You will be as surprised as you are pleasantly surprised. A must-see discovery!
ROBERTON'S FARM SHOP
Read moreThis little shop is a little set back from Beauly and the road. Crazy Highland cows, you'll have to stop there to meet Jamie, Katie and Heather. The three of them graze there quietly, with a few llamas as meadow neighbours. The shop sells products from the farm, but also a selection of quality delicatessen products. Visitors are welcome here and even warmly welcomed. Don't be afraid of the tourist trap, the owners are really in the process of pleasing and sharing their love of Scotland.
ARRAN CHEESE SHOP

In addition to the classic cheddars: cheddar with herbs, ginger, whisky, caramelized onions, Arran mustard, chili... You'll also find chutneys, oatcakes and other products perfect for a proper tasting, or filled baskets.
