Stilton, known as the 'King of English Cheeses,' has a rich history dating back to the 18th century, originating from the rural regions of Derbyshire, Leicestershire, and Nottinghamshire. This iconic blue cheese is crafted using traditional methods, with a unique combination of creamy texture and bold flavor that captivates cheese lovers. Its distinct character comes from the Penicillium roqueforti mold, which develops during aging, creating that signature blue-green marbling. Stilton is a protected designation cheese, making its production a true craft steeped in English heritage.
