Aldi launch espresso martini boozy cheese and other unique flavours ahead of Christmas

In time for the Christmas parties, Aldi is launching its most exciting range of festive cheeses yet, with a host of new products including an Espresso Martini Wensleydale.

One for the cheese lovers, the budget supermarket has curated an interesting range of cheeses from traditional to the unusual.

The new range for Christmas has taken inspiration from classic British favourite flavours from around the world, and even cocktails and spirits.

Aldi’s Specially Selected British Flavoured Truckles launch on November 26 and include four new unique flavours.

They include a Caramelised Onion & Rioja Mature Cheddar – the perfect combination of cheese and wine – an aromatic Rosemary & Truffle Flavour Mature Cheddar and a Jamaican-inspired Spiced Honey & Rum Yorkshire Wensleydale.

A Raspberries & Pink Gin Yorkshire Wensleydale rounds off the quirky range and is a great choice for any celebration over the festive season.

Aldi’s Specially Selected British Speciality Cheeses (£2.19) feature a deliciously festive twist, combining two after dinner classics; coffee and cheese, making the Espresso Martini Wensleydale is the booziest cheese Aldi have ever launched.

The award-winning Bombay Spice and Mango Chutney Red Leicester is a rich and silky spiced Red Leicester, complemented by a mouth wateringly delicious traditional mango chutney recipe and whole spices.

And for those rare folk who enjoy a brussel sprout, Aldi will be launching a new Specially Selected Baking Camembert with Sprout Pesto for £2.99.

The unique sprout pesto gives the classic camembert a quirky Christmas twist. When baked to perfection, the camembert’s soft heart becomes molten and creamy, perfect for dipping and dunking.

For an impressive spread, the Specially Selected Exquisite British Cheese Selection Pack includes Stratford Blue®, Smoked Red Leicester and Goosnargh Gold Double Gloucester which will go on sale December 10 for £8.99.

Serve with the Specially Selected Cracker Selection and Specially Selected Caramelised Red Onion Chutney, awarded the top accolade of three stars at the Great Taste Awards. Both on sale now.

Aldi’s Specially Selected British Flavoured Truckles and Aldi’s Specially Selected British Speciality Cheese go on sale November 26.
