Cheese Fest

Ribblesdale Blue Goat

On first tasting, there is a subtle goatiness and a smooth creamy texture with the fresh flavour that some goat’s cheese have. As the goatiness quickly fades, it makes way for a distinct blueness, that is again subtle and delicate.

Its complex mix and broad range of flavours are unusual but pleasing, as they do not compete but compliment one another in an extremely satisfying manner. Sat atop a Cornish Wafer and eaten with a glass of crisp white wine, this cheese is a truly delightful experience.

UPDATE – Be aware! – This cheese is better when young. If it gets too old, it can turn to the dark side. It loses it’s beautiful subtleties, becomes extremely overpoweringly blue in flavour with the throat attacking Cabrales effect.
