Good things come in threes, and so it is for Jumi Cheesemongers, who you may have had the pleasure of visiting in Borough Market or Newington Green and now we bring you news of their third London outlet, which is coming to Crouch End.
Specialising in cheeses from the Emmental Valley in Switzerland (where their great-great-grandfather began producing cheese in 1896), Jumi is the place raw-milk hedonists and lovers of freshly baked artisan bread should vehemently add to their cheese-toastie lists (if it’s not on there already). The even better news is that Jumi’s popular ‘cheesy nights’ will be a feature at the Crouch End shop, which has taken over the former site of late-night venue Moors Bar. Apart from satiating your raclette or fondue cravings, Jumi also has an abundance of cheese for sale, everything from the ‘blue brain’ – one of the mouldiest cheeses available in the UK – to a truffle raclette to a 30-month-aged Schlossburger.
Turophiles will need no introduction to Jumi’s legendary cheese selection, but it’s especially exciting news for Crouch End as this specialised shop will be a prime place to pick up picnic ingredients to enjoy in nearby Highgate Wood or Ally Pally this summer. Or you could go all in with some impressive cheeseboard accompaniments, such as figs and apple mustard, truffle honey, pickled mushrooms, crackers, Chäg (an apricot-chilli-ginger jam) or pickled onions. And allow us to make a suggestion for that difficult foodie friend to buy for - Jumi’s tealight-powered raclette machine.
