This is a hand crafted cheese, produced from a local milk herd in rural Lancashire. It’s a soft textured, yellow coloured creamy cheese with a mild blueing. For those who want to try a blue cheese without being hit bit that strong, almost chlorine, smell, this is great. It still has an assertive flavour without being pungent and over powering.

The lovely yellowish colour comes from the addition of a natural ingredient called anato. Like many blue cheeses, Blacksticks Blue could be temperamental during it’s maturation, but with tender care from the cheese makers, the final product comes out spot on.
