If there was ever a cheese that would be synonymous with autumn and winter it would be Long Clawson Blue Shropshire. First of all it's orange (Autumn leaves, oranges floating in mulled wine etc...) and brings a flash of colour to your cheeseboard. Secondly, it's orange because it's made using annatto, a mild spice which has a sweet and peppery flavour. And thirdly, it's a warm and smoothing cheese, perfect for a chilly Winter's day. Essay over. Despite it's name, Shropshire Blue is not made in Shropshire, this particular cheese hails from Leicestershire from a Dairy with over 100 years experience in crafting epic artisan cheeses. We hope you love it as much as we do.

Delivery is FREE and it comes in a climate control box (the only in the industry) that comes with a 48 hour freshness guarantee. If that wasn't enough, we also add an insert that will talk you through the info on the cheeses, tasting notes and a scorecard to help you make the very most of your festive cheesegeek delivery.
