Description
Traditionally made and lovingly matured, this mature and mellow cheese is the pride of our Master Cheesemakers. The perfect Blue Shropshire will be a rich orange in colour with distinctive blue veining and a golden crust. It is best accompanied by a good English brown Ale or, as with Stilton, by a rich fortified wine.
Food facts
Shropshire Blue is a blue cheese made from pasteurised cows' milk and uses vegetable rennet. The orange colour comes from the addition of annatto, a natural food colouring. Penicillium roqueforti produces the veining. The cheese has a deep orange-brown, natural rind and matures for a period of 10–12 weeks with a fat content of about 48 per cent.
