The Ultimate Cheese Advent Calendar Experience
Discover 24 days of exceptional cheese with the Paxton & Whitfield Artisan Cheese Advent Calendar, £175 including UK delivery across three fresh deliveries this December.
Our Cheese Advent Calendar returns for 2026, bringing together 24 carefully chosen cheeses for a tasting journey through December.
This year’s selection has been curated by our cheesemongers to showcase some of the cheeses we are most excited about, from much-loved festive classics to new discoveries, special buys and cheeses selected especially for the calendar. As ever, the full line-up will remain a surprise until each numbered box is opened.
Recipients will receive three fresh deliveries, each containing eight days of cheese. Every cheese is hand-cut and hand-wrapped by Paxton & Whitfield, with individual whole cheeses included where we think they offer the very best experience. Please select Friday 27 November as your Advent delivery date. This is the first of three fresh deliveries. Your next parcels will arrive automatically on Friday 4 December and Friday 11 December, so there is nothing else you need to arrange.
Each numbered Advent box contains a generous portion of at least 75g of cheese, giving you plenty to properly taste and enjoy, or enough to share if you can bear to. Alongside each cheese you will find tasting information introducing its character, its maker and ideas for enjoying it at its best.
Across the 24 days, expect a wonderfully varied collection of British and European artisan cheese. There will be familiar Christmas favourites such as Cheddar and Stilton alongside lesser-known styles, seasonal highlights and some particularly special cheeses chosen by our team.
Spreading the calendar across three deliveries means your cheese arrives fresh throughout December, rather than spending the month waiting behind a cardboard door. Each parcel is carefully packed for its journey to you, ready to be refrigerated and enjoyed one day at a time.
For more than two centuries, selecting, caring for and sharing exceptional cheese has been at the heart of Paxton & Whitfield. Our Advent Calendar brings that cheesemongering experience home for December, with something new to unwrap, taste and discover every day in the run up to Christmas.
Beautifully presented and created in strictly limited numbers, it makes a memorable gift for a cheese lover, or a particularly delicious way to count down to Christmas.
£175 including UK delivery. Order your 2026 Paxton & Whitfield Cheese Advent Calendar while stocks last.
Please note: the Cheese Advent Calendar is available for home delivery only and is not available for Click & Collect from our shops.

Named day deliveries on all orders: You can select a delivery date on Tuesday - Saturday when you go to checkout. (Please note. a surcharge of £10 applies to Saturday deliveries) .
Chilled overnight cheese delivery: All of our cheese parcels are cooled with re-usable ice packs and insulated with recyclable packaging. We always use an overnight delivery service for UK mainland orders to ensure that your cheese arrives with you in fine condition.

Delivery tracking & notifications: Please provide your mobile phone number or email address and you will receive tracking details and anticipated delivery times. On the day that your order is despatched, you will recieve a notification that your delivery is on its way and an anticipated 1 hour delivery time slot.
Carbon-neutral delivery: Our delivery partners at DPD commit to make every parcel they deliver carbon neutral. They measure their CO2 emissions, strive to reduce them, and offset the remaining emissions.
No signature required: You may use the "Delivery Instructions" in the ordering process to provide succinct instructions such as "leave in the garage if out" (choose a cool place) if the recipient is out. The driver is instructed to leave your parcel somewhere safe if you are out to ensure that the cheese is not delayed or held for too long in a warehouse. We regret we cannot accept responsibility for the condition of the goods or non-receipt if goods are not signed for.
UK Highlands & Islands Delivery
There are some places we simply can't get to in under a day and cost more for delivery. If you live in the UK Highlands or Islands, or in a particularly remote location then an additional delivery charge and longer delivery time may apply. You will be notified of any additional charge when you go to checkout.
