Looks like an interesting blue from a farmhouse in Lancashire.
Brief description : made from cow's milk, aged for 8 weeks,
during which it develops an amber hue. Has anyone tried this
particular cheese before.? If so..... more info please?    1.

Great graphics. It's one I was considering ordering, without
having tasted. Their recipe for Tartifletta looks tasty! I'll
report back after trying...        1. re: Phoebe          I look
forward to reading your review!      2. Not my favourite British
Blue cheese.       I find it has a strange almost metallic
aftertaste.       I know other people who love the stuff.
I much prefer Stichelton, one of my favourite British cheeses.

comments where people compared it to both Stilton and
Stichelton. Both of which I've never tasted.         Hopefully
it isn't as bad you described
