The history of cheese boards is intertwined with the history of cheesemaking itself, dating back thousands of years. Ancient civilizations like the Romans and Egyptians enjoyed cheese. Cheese boards evolved as a way to showcase and appreciate the variety of cheeses available, often served at gatherings and celebrations. The concept of pairing cheese with accompaniments like bread, fruit, and nuts developed over time to enhance the overall tasting experience. The specific cultural influences depend on the cheeses chosen for the board.

A cheese board offers a diverse array of flavors, from mild and creamy to sharp and pungent, depending on the selection of cheeses. Accompaniments like fruits, nuts, and crackers provide contrasting and complementary flavors and textures.
The flavor profile depends entirely on the cheeses selected. You might find a creamy brie with subtle earthy notes, a sharp cheddar with tangy undertones, a salty and crumbly blue cheese, or a nutty and firm Gruyere. Accompaniments provide balancing elements: sweet fruits like grapes and apples, crunchy nuts like almonds and walnuts, and savory crackers or bread. Jams, honey, and chutneys can add further complexity and sweetness, while pickled vegetables offer a contrasting acidity.
