2023 Cheese Club Reviews

iGourmet International Cheese

• "A+" Better Business Bureau rating
• Save on longer subscriptions
• High customer satisfaction

iGourmet carries the best of cheeses, meats, pantry staples, oils and vinegars, beverages, sweets, and more. Their roots go back generations, but they didn't launch their online specialty foods store until 1997. They carry over 900 types of cheeses, so your taste buds will never be bored here. In addition to iGourmet's international cheese subscription box, they have options for platinum and Italian cheese delivery, which you'll also find among our reviews.

3 new cheeses monthly

Inside each iGourmet international cheese box you'll receive a selection of 3 different cheeses, each weighing a half pound. They might come from Italy, France, Ireland, or another region around the world. You'll also receive a newsletter that guides you through that month's assortment and teaches you the origin, history, and flavor profile along with suggested wine pairings.

Select your delivery schedule

To get started with a cheese subscription plan, you'll first select the number of deliveries and duration you desire. Your options are a 3-month delivery, 6-month, 12-month, or every month recurring. A minor discrepancy on iGourmet's website is that they advertise the subscription box as pay-as-you-go, but once you go to select the package you want, they are all listed as pre-paid.

Save with longer subscriptions

A 3-month subscription of the international cheese box is $162, which is $54/month. A 6-month subscription is $318 total, or $53/month. The best deal is to subscribe for a full 12 months, which will cost $624 or $52/month. If you decide to pay month-to-month without any designated timeframe, the cost is $55/month. The cost of shipping is included in the overall price.

Shipments go out within days of order

Your first box will ship within a few days of placing your subscription order and then subsequent boxes will be delivered monthly, about every 30 days from your original purchase date depending on your chosen subscription schedule.

Refunds or replacements for shipping problems only

If your box of cheeses from iGourmet arrives and doesn't meet your expectations due to a shipping related issue, you can have it replaced or be refunded as long as you alert them within 7 days of having received the order. Otherwise, iGourmet guarantees that all their deliveries will arrive in top physical condition and you won't be getting your money back for simply not liking the flavors of cheeses.

Solid option

iGourmet has an "A+" rating from the Better Business Bureau. They also have over 210 5-star reviews from verified customers on their website with favorable comments about their wide variety of cheeses, prompt delivery, high quality and more. This is a competitively-priced option for cheese delivery, but it doesn't come with other specialty items (crackers, chocolate, preserves, nuts, etc.) like some other cheese clubs do. However, if you're wanting the experience of trying flavorful international cheeses, this is a solid option.
