Stilton is also called 'The King of English cheeses’. This Blue Stilton is characterised by its typical blue veining with rich complex flavours and a piquant finish.


The perfect Stilton from Colston Bassett should be a rich cream colour with blue veining spread throughout.The texture of the cheese is smooth and creamy with a mellow flavour and no sharp acidic taste from the blue.The cheese is best eaten at around 12 weeks but this varies from cheese to cheese as each one is an individual. Melt in the mouth perfection is what Colston Bassett delivers.
