Blue Stilton
Your price:
€ 12,47
Blue Stilton or just Stilton cheese is named for the little village of Stilton, but it has never been made there. It was, however made nearby and is still made locally within the counties of Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire.
The paste of the Blue Stilton is crumbly when young, softening and darkening at the rind as it matures. It is a lovely creamy ivory color with well-spread blue veining growing from the center outward. The aroma is sharply nutty and the flavor is full of mellow nuts and fruit. The flavor strengthens as it matures. Blue Stilton cheeses are drum shaped with a thick, hard, uncracked crust which is usually grayish-brown and slightly wrinkled with whitish pow...

Blue Stilton with Port

This cheese will only be in our assortment for a limited time only, so try it while you can !...

Cheddar, mild
Your price:
€ 7,95
This is a fine Cheddar cheese in a red wax 'rind', sufficiently aged to provide a mild and predictable sharpness without being overbearing - the right ingredient for cheddar in almost any meal.
Of course, Cheddar is one of the most famous of all cheeses and it takes its name from the village of Cheddar in Somerset where the cheese was first made.
The color and the taste are great, mild but distinct; certainly an appropriate cheese for your lunches, salads or just as a snack.

Shropshire Blue
Your Price:
€ 12,24
Shropshire Blue cheese was originally invented and produced in Scotland but is now made by some of the Stilton cheese producers. Indeed, it is made in exactly the same way as Stilton except that annatto is added to the milk with the starter culture and the mold. This British gourmet cheese has nothing to do with Shropshire.
Shropshire Blue cheese comes in medium-size drums with a rough brown rind. The paste is bright orange in color with vivid blue veining. The texture is firm and creamy, but also slightly crumbly. The flavor is sharper than Stilton and quite distinctive. There is a definite sour or wine-like tang with oranges and lemons but the Shropshire Blue aftertaste is sweet.
