About Dorstone
An English pasteurised and ashed goat’s milk cheese made by artisan cheesemaker Charlie Westhead. It has a distinctive turret shape with a delicate wrinkled rind. Dorstone has a creamy and lightly fluffy texture
Blue /Green spots on Dorstone.
Certain times of the year, the Dorstone cheese from Neal’s Yard Creamery, pick up spots of blue / green mould.
This mould is not introduced and is purely environmental during the Autumn months.
The blue / green mould does not change the nature of the cheese in any way and is completely harmless. It occurs on many artisan cheeses from time to time, both continental and from the UK. Many people welcome the ‘variation’ in these artisanal, hand-made cheeses.
Flavour notes:
Bright and zesty.
