Nothing pleases us more on a cold winter evening than sharing a bottle of port and this rich, full flavored Stilton with family & friends.
Made by Richard Rowlett & Billy Kevan at Colston Bassett & District Dairy, Colston Bassett, Nottinghamshire. Stilton is made using pasteurized cow's milk and traditional animal rennet.
Colston Bassett is one of the smallest Stilton Dairies in the country. They buy milk from 5 farms surrounding the dairy. Their Stilton is more traditional than any other. The curd is hand-ladled before draining which results in a luscious, creamy texture when the cheese is mature. The rinds are dimpled and aged, bearing the marks of long months in the caves, but the cheese is creamy and luxurious, with a silky texture and a long, fruity bite. Jason and Randolph hand select for us this "king of blues".
