Blue Cheeses

Of all the cheeses in the world, we might just love the blues the best. These cheeses of noble character are etched with delicate blue-green veins. Flavor-producing molds are injected during the cheese’s curing process to create the veins. The cheeses age in caves where the dampness transforms the curds into a beautiful ivory color. They range from soft, creamy, and mild to intense and firm.

Although most blue cheeses are made from cow’s milk, Roquefort is made from sheep’s milk, and there are also some new blue goat’s-milk cheeses being made in the States.
