Stilton is a type of English cheese, originating from the village of Stilton in Cambridgeshire. It is a blue cheese, made from cow's milk and is known for its strong, pungent flavour. It is one of the few cheeses that is protected by a European Union Protected Designation of Origin, meaning that only cheese made in certain counties of England can be called Stilton. The Stilton market is a niche market, with a small but loyal customer base. It is often used in cooking, as well as being served as a cheese course. It is also popular as a gift, particularly around the festive season. Some of the companies in the Stilton market include Cropwell Bishop Creamery, Colston Bassett Dairy, Long Clawson Dairy, and Tuxford & Tebbutt. Show Less Read more
