Description
Meet the showstopper of the cheese board — Clawson Shropshire Blue. With its striking golden-orange hue and delicate blue veining, this artisan cheese is as beautiful as it is delicious. The colour comes from natural annatto extract, derived from the berry of the achiote tree, giving the cheese its signature warm glow.
Made at the renowned Long Clawson Dairy near Melton Mowbray, this British blue cheese has a fudgy, melting texture and a subtle tang that’s both creamy and complex. It’s the perfect balance between mellow and characterful — ideal for anyone looking to explore the wonderful world of blue cheeses.
Whether served on a cheeseboard, crumbled over a salad, or melted onto a warm steak, Clawson Shropshire Blue adds a touch of indulgence to any occasion.
