A cross between Stilton and Cheshire, it is firmer with a sharp, creamy and slightly tangy flavour.
The striking yellow colour comes from the addition of Annatto a natural food colouring extracted from the seeds of the Achiote tree from South America which also helps to soften the cheese.
Clawson Blue Stilton is made in the heart of the Vale of Belvoir by Master Cheesemakers who began crafting cheese over 100 years ago. Each individual Stilton is individually graded and hand-selected to ensure finest quality. It will be ready at around eight weeks old and is crumbly and creamy with a bold and expressive flavour. The perfect Stilton will have the telltale blue veins radiating from the centre and a distinctive tangy flavour. The milk comes only from local farmers ensuring low food miles.
Long Clawson is only one of five dairies in the world able to make Stilton due to its PDO status.
Bleu d’Auvergne is a full bodied blue cheese inspired by Roquefort but made with cow’s milk in the heart of the Massif Central. It is produced in a short cylinder. The rind is thin and the paste is rich and creamy with a pretty ivory color. There are a few holes scattered throughout the paste with distributed greenish-blue veining. The cheese has a sharp aroma and a spicy flavor with a hint of herbs and melted butter. The overall flavor is piquant but not sharp: a cheese with an extraordinary personality.

The Wheels are aged for 3-4 months at a low temperature at which time metal rods are inserted to create air channels which allows the blue mould to spread. Due to the ageing the cheese is firm, moist but also has a sweet yet sharp taste.
