Lived in London for 10 years. Surprised you never came across it, used to be a staple with roast beef. Although today I think horseradish has edged in on the mustard-turf slightly.
Mmmm, o.k… maybe it’s a southern/London thing.(?) I lived up north. You’re talking English yellow mustard, right?
Haven’t had this but heard some love while listening to a podcast earlier today - anybody with any experience?

Kermit Lynch imports a nice Dijon style mustard that has a nice spicy kick. Bought mine at my local wine shop. Very good stuff.
Jerry mentioned that several posts earlier. I find it a bit strong and not as mustardy as I’d like.

Poor seed harvests have led to empty shelves at supermarkets in France and global shortages”

If there is one thing I trust less than tweets from [Name omitted to avoid another silly yellow card for illegal political commentary], it’s French agricultural shortage reports, but this seems real. i bought about a pound of seeds in the Fall, but maybe I should but more.
French’s? Seriously on an all beef hot dog.
Mailles was selling out of its classic mustard from tap on our trip last week. Dijon and Paris location both selling out by 11AM-12PM. The truffled mustards were still available. After missing out in Dijon, we got some in Paris. The classic from tap was a bit spicier than the bottled.
Bit of a dumpster dive but I’d say that the Kozliks triple crunch is one of the better charcuterie plate mustards around for the exact reasons you gave. Plays well with cornichons and is mild enough to not overpower but add needed acidic zip to fatty meat and cheese.

When we were in Beaune a couple months ago, we did the mustard tour and came away with a bunch of the Moutard de Bourgogne, which we thought was much better than standard Dijon mustard.
Thanks - ordered some to try out.
It’ll clear your sinuses (and maybe get rid of nostril hair).
Great stuff!
