Blue Stilton is one of the best British cheeses suitable not only for celebrations, but also to perk up everyday dishes. The Stilton cheese can only be produced in the three counties of Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire. The cheese is made from locally produced pasteurised cow milk. It is made in a cylindrical shape and allowed to form its own coat or crust. The distinctive feature of this cheese is magical blue veins radiating from the centre of the cheese.

The paradox is that Blue Stilton cannot be made in the town of Stilton in a county now outside the AOP area! This paradox comes from Cooper Thornhill, an entrepreneur, resident in a Stilton inn, who bought it from the wife of a farmer who lived in Melton Mowbray, where it is still made, and called it Stilton cheese.

Traditionally, this cheese has been paired with sherry and port wine. It is also a good choice to go with walnuts, crackers, biscuits and bread.
