5 Best Cheese Gifts For Every Type of Connoisseur
Because everyone loves cheese.
Christmas is the perfect time to pop a bottle of port, lay out a favorite cheese, and kick up your feet. That’s why cheese gifts are great for everyone, from the super knowledgable fiend to the casual snacker.
Nothing excites a cheese enthusiast more than trying a new style, making their own, or splurging by upgrading their cheese board to something fancier (like this beauty from Anthropologie, $58).
We’ve gathered the best gifts for cheese lovers, from cheese making kits to fondue pots and hand-crafted cheese boards.

Marbled Acacia Cheese Board
- Description
- Pros
$58.00, Anthropologie
Display your fine cheese collection on this chocolate marble and acacia wood cheese board. The natural design will vary with each order, making each very unique.
One reviewer wrote: “I bought this item as a gift. As the other reviewers and the product description states, each piece is unique and will not look like the picture. My piece definitely had more chocolate marble in it. I still think it is gorgeous. Not only could this be used for cheese boards, but it would look beautiful as a centerpiece with some candles. It was also very heavy so I’m hoping that speaks to the quality.”
