Sparkenhoe Shropshire Blue

Made by Will Clarke using milk from the family's own herd, this is the UK's only raw milk Shropshire Blue. Crafted using the same recipe as Sparkenhoe Blue with the addition of annatto for its vibrant orange paste, the cheese is carefully matured to develop its smooth, creamy body and balanced complexity. The result is a beautifully rounded blue cheese with a buttery richness that complements, rather than overwhelms, its delicate blue character.

Pair it with oatcakes, pears or apple chutney to complement its mellow savoury flavour. It is equally delicious crumbled into salads, melted over steaks, or served as part of a cheeseboard with walnuts and a glass of Port or robust ale.
