STRATHDON BLUE
Expiry date: 2025/01/21Butter cream icing on the nose; voluptuous maturity on the palate
Styled around Bleu d’Auvergne from south, central France. A fairly high moisture blue made with quite high fat milk which helps advance a creamy texture. All blue tends to be high in salt at around 2.2% but when mature it’s almost impossible to tell as the flavour develops into a salty/sweet combination with a distinctive steely blue note to finish. Try a peated dram, they tend to be a touch sweeter and that always matches nicely with the salty note of a blue cheese, also a muscat or pudding wine.
More complex than most Blues with bold cracks and streaks, this creamy, juicy cheese yields to the touch and fills the mouth with a delightfully fudgy texture, finishing on balanced notes of salt and steel. You need nothing more than a simple cracker or chunk of crusty loaf.
