Colston Bassett Shropshire Blue

With its striking orange hue and fine blue veining, Colston Bassett Shropshire Blue is a showstopping addition to any cheeseboard. Handmade in Nottinghamshire by the same expert cheesemakers behind the award-winning Colston Bassett Stilton, this cheese blends tradition, quality, and stunning flavour in every bite.

Made using pasteurised cow’s milk, Shropshire Blue has a rich, buttery texture and a mellow blue tang. Its colour comes from natural annatto, and while it looks bold, the flavour is beautifully balanced – creamy, savoury, and not too sharp.

This is a cheese that satisfies both the eye and the palate, whether served with crusty bread, chutneys, or simply enjoyed on its own.

All pieces are hand cut and weight approx.
