In the past, only the top tiers of the Berlin gastronomy business could order Fritz Lloyd Blomeyer’s cheese. Thankfully, this has finally changed, and the humble customer can too have a slice of cheese paradise at Fritz Lloyd Blomeyer’s store. Opened in May 2015, it’s beautifully spacious, with high ceilings, a large wooden table and sparingly stocked shelves. On offer you will find cheese ranging from the “Peppered Ärschle” to the “Schwarzen Schaf”, and a “Bärlauchcamenbert” (Wild Garlic Camembert) to celebrate the arrival of spring. As for the products he sells alongside his cheese, Fritz Lloyd Blomeyer has no patience for a plain fig mustard. Instead, his stock is complemented by a selection of chutneys, confits, and exotic relishes, like the Hadori relish made from wild knotweed. As with most of his supplies, the relishes come from a personal acquaintance in his home village, with Blomeyer also sourcing delicacies such as handmade nougat, dandelion syrup and freshly baked bread. From the cheese to the wines, everything is German grown, with only one exception: the champagne. This, of course, comes from France – sometimes even Fritz Lloyd Blomeyer has to make an exception.
