Blue Stilton is a British cheese known for its intense flavor. It is one of the most famous blue cheeses and holds a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO), meaning it can only be produced in certain counties in England: Derbyshire, Leicestershire, and Nottinghamshire.
Stilton is made from pasteurized cow’s milk and is characterized by its blue veins, created by the Penicillium roqueforti mold. It is typically enjoyed as part of a cheese board, accompanied by fruit, bread, or used as an ingredient in sauces and gourmet dishes. If you enjoy blue cheese, you will likely appreciate the rich and distinctive taste of Stilton.
