Description: Chorlton Cheshire Cheeses are award-winning cheeses made using traditional methods without any mechanical equipment. The company produces four types of Cheshire cheeses – traditional Cheshire cheese, colored Cheshire cheese, smoked Cheshire cheese and Blue Cheshire cheese.

The creamy, crumbly cheese with striking blue spider veins is matured for 60 days to develop flavors, which are a fresh lemony tang and a salty lingering taste on the palate.
