Artikaas
Youngsters First Milk Gouda

4-6 week aged, milk, creamy, smooth

Clawson Farms
Shropshire Blue
Leicestershire, England
An absolute standout, Shropshire Blue gets its rich golden-orange color from natural annatto, derived from the berry of the achiote tree. This award-winning British blue cheese is fudgy, gently tangy, and irresistibly meltable. With a creamy, mellow flavor that still carries plenty of character, it’s the perfect gateway to blue cheese. Beloved by food lovers, it’s hard to beat for melting onto a crostini, especially with a spoonful of red onion marmalade.
WINE & CRAFT BEER PAIRINGS:
Pair with a Riesling Spätlese—its vibrant acidity and touch of sweetness balance the cheese’s tang and richness. For beer, an English strong ale offers malty warmth that complements the cheese’s fudge-like texture and savory depth.
WINESTYLES: Fruity
BEERSTYLES: Fruity & Spicy
RECIPE IDEAS: Try this delicious cheese on a flaky phyllo dough (what’s not to love?). You’ll love this recipe for Shropshire Blue Tart >
