Victoria Urresti - Cheese Expert and World Cheese Awards Top 16 Judge."Exceptional cheese, incredible lingering taste in the mouth. So much personality, it is an honour to taste this" Roland Barthelemy - Cheese Expert and World Cheese Awards Top 16 Judge.Harrogate Blue is a stunning addition to any cheese board, golden-bodied and matured for a minimum of 10 weeks, the optimum time for the cheese to develop exactly the right depth of flavour and creaminess.The cheese has been a hit since day one, winning its first award just two weeks after launch in 2012.

Harrogate Blue is soft, luxuriously creamy and blue-veined, delivering a mellow blue flavour with a hint of pepper to finish.
Bought this hamper for husband who loves cheese. It was delivered on time packed well, he loves them full flavours.
Excellent cheese, excellent service
Perfect, mellow and so flavoursome. Would recommend to all-not overly strong. We love it.
Must say what a beautiful creamy cheese, love the taste. If you have not tried this little gem they give it a try, you will not be disappointed. 👍👍
Omg I didn't think I would ever find a blue cheese I would like. BUT this is amazing soft and light and oh so tasty. We have just had a half moon of it sent to us today. Can't wait to taste it again
Thank you for the amazing ideas you sent with it too. Next time in Yorkshire we are definitely coming to see you

Was served this at a supper a few weeks ago.
A friend who accompanied me has always disliked blue cheese, but she tried the Organic Yorkshire Blue and she's now a convert to the cause of mould-cheese... mild but flavoursome, not too creamy and gently herby.
Red Onion & Port Marmalade goes perfectly with Yorkshire Blue. A brilliant combination.
The White Lavender was fresh and different - delightfully floral. Definitely one I will go back to.
Beautiful flavoursome cheese,quick delivery presented lovely and packed exceptional with ice packs. Would recommend Shepherds cheeses.
Excellent cheeses. A great company to deal with.

Yorkshire Blue was perfect - smooth & delicious
This was a thank you gift which was thoroughly enjoyed by the recipients.
Having been a customer on many occasions, Shepherds Purse are a wonderful company to deal with, producing quality cheeses, some of my favourites are Northern Blue, Yorkshire Blue, Blumin White. My orders have always arrive on time and in lovely cool packaging. Fantastic friendly company to deal with.
I’ve recently found out I am dairy intolerant to cow, sheep and goat but not buffalo. As a HUGE cheese lover it was a real blow and I’ve spent a fortune trying different vegan cheeses and got a little bored of buffalo mozzarella. In Waitrose this week the ‘buffalo’ title caught my eye and so I bought some of this absolutely fantastic, gorgeous cheese which will be a new staple in our house. What a find!
From New York, visiting relatives in Yorkshire.
Home made orange marmalade, artisan bread and Yorkshire Blue complete a wonderful meal.
Thank You

I’ve bought this cheese previously and it’s one of our favourites. It’s nice and clean tasting, slightly sharp cheese and versatile . As well as in salads it’s delicious grilled ( oil, chilli flakes and coriander seeds ) on top of some butter beans.
Love this cheese. My favourite out of the Shepherd Purse blue range.
Oh wow these cheeses are absolutely delicious,prompt delivery on Time packed perfect. I would definitely recommend and will be purchasing more hopefully the hamper box.
