From one of Britain’s most respected dairies comes this vibrant twist on a classic—Colston Bassett Shropshire Blue. Richly golden from natural annatto and laced with elegant blue veining, it combines the creamy texture of traditional Stilton with a slightly more robust, peppery finish.
Hand-ladled curds preserve moisture, yielding a luxuriously smooth paste with mellow savoury depth. It’s aged slowly to develop a balanced profile: earthy and lactic at the core, with just enough spice to keep the palate intrigued.
A showstopping cheese that brings colour, complexity, and finesse to any cheeseboard.
Pairing Suggestions
• Wine: Tawny Port, Sauternes, or full-bodied Shiraz
• Charcuterie: Bold enough to pair with smoked beef or game salami
• Accompaniments: Medjool dates, fig jam, or honeyed walnuts
