Honestly, if you're new to this, keep it simple. Don't buy anything pre-sliced or pre-shredded – go for blocks or wheels. Matured farmhouse cheddars, a semi-soft like Gruyère, and include a wildcard like a smoked cheese, like Scamorza. And for the love of cheese, let them all come to room temperature before serving!

If you value tradition, you can't go wrong with an English Stilton, a French Comté, and an Italian Pecorino Romano. They are classical cheeses that serve as a benchmark for taste. Pair them with some authentic bread and a selection of olives. These cheeses have stood the test of time for a reason.

For a mind-blowing selection that won't break the bank, start with a creamy Brie or Camembert. They're crowd-pleasers and not too pricey. Then throw in a Gouda or aged Cheddar with some crystallization for that wow-factor texture; both can be found in affordable ranges. Pick a wild card like Havarti or Port Salut for variety. You should also get a blue cheese, like Gorgonzola or Roquefort, to challenge the palette. Just balance strong-flavored cheeses with mild ones to keep everyone happy!
