One of the smallest Stilton producers in the country, Colston Bassett is a farmers’ co-operative that has been making cheese in the Vale of Belvoir since 1913. Curds are hand ladled to maintain their delicate structure, while the cheeses are pierced relatively late (to activate the blue mould) so that they have time to develop a rounded avour. Mellow, smooth and creamy with evenly spread blue veins, Colston Bassett also balances sweet, savoury and salty notes.
