What's in the box: A surprise selection of artisan French cheeses from small producers, mixing well known classics with less familiar finds.
La Boîte du Fromager is a French online cheese shop founded in 2014 by Rebecca. It focuses on artisan cheeses from small producers. Its core product is a monthly surprise cheese box from 22,90€ per month, which mixes familiar classics with less common finds. The shop also sells ready-to-serve cheese platters from 39,90€ and raclette and fondue kits from 30,00€, along with seasonal calendars and apéritif products. Gift vouchers and a corporate offer are available, so it works well for presents.
The shop holds a 4.3 out of 5 average across 2,791 audited customer reviews, a solid and well established record. Recent feedback generally praises the packaging, the chilled delivery and the chance to try cheeses you would not find in a supermarket. There are recurring complaints worth knowing about. Some customers find the portions small for the price, a few say delicate cheeses such as goat's cheese do not travel well, and there are occasional delivery delays. Some boxes include extras such as wine, and opinions on those are more mixed than on the cheese.
The site does not state its cancellation terms or delivery areas, so check both before subscribing. For shoppers in France who want a regular, curated introduction to artisan cheese, it is a dependable option.
