Isles of Wight Cheese Company, Isle of Wight
A blue cheese that looks like it is completely beyond saving when it is actually at its very best. A thick edible rind covered in many colours of mould below which lurks a lava flow of very runny cheese. The rind is grassy and coming close to having the slightest bitterness contrasting to velvety smooth, almost drinkable buttery paste with nuggets of perky blue lurking within, echoing the mineral salty flavours of roquefort. Put it on a cheese board with plenty of room to run and serve with a good baguette, a tart chutney and pears.
