    Creamy, sweet and mild, Yorkshire Blue is an ideal introduction to blue cheese. With age, the flavour deepens and becomes more complex without compromising the mild creaminess that’s helped make it a national favourite.

    Launched in 1995, Yorkshire Blue was our first blue cheese, our first cheese made from cow’s milk, and the first blue cheese to be made in Yorkshire for 30 years.

    Our multi-award-winning Yorkshire Blue is handmade and matured over eight weeks. Each week, we turn each individual cheese by hand, which helps to achieve the lovely blue veining and even smooth texture.

    But don't just take our word for it, Yorkshire Blue was judged to be the Best English Cheese at the International Cheese & Dairy Awards in 2018.

    Love at first try

    We absolutely loved the Yorkshire Blue! I only ordered it to make up an order of Mrs Bell's Salad Cheese as we love this sheep cheese. We made the Yorkshire Blue recipe that came with it: Y B with figs on Sourdough Toast and it was gorgeous. We also made the risotto recipe that came with the cheeses, using the Yorkshire Blue, and it was a great main veg meal. We will definitely be ordering it again!
