Colston Shropshire Blue

Not available for UK delivery

The recipe for this striking blue cheese combines elements of Stilton and another British territorial, Cheshire. Moreover, it is slightly younger than the traditional Stilton and owes its bright orange pâte to the addition of a natural dye called annatto.

Cheesemakers in Nottinghamshire use pasteurised cow’s milk and vegetarian rennet to make truckles of Shropshire Blue. At 6-8 weeks, it has a rusty coloured natural rind and a bright orange pâte.

Furthermore, it has a smooth, semi-soft texture and is delicately sweet on the palate. Beside, this gorgeous blue shows no signs of sharpness or bitterness. 

Serve at room temperature with honey and walnuts. It can be paired with a Brown Ale or a fortified wine like Port.
