Strong, steely and sweet, in other words, Northern!

Northern Blue was launched in 2019 as the more powerful and more mature brother to Yorkshire Blue. Aged for a minimum of 10 weeks, Shepherd's Purse use a stronger strain of Penicillium Roquefort to achieve a more robust blue flavour.
They took the launch batch to Bergamo in Italy to the World Cheese Awards and lo and behold came back with a Silver medal! Northern Blue is recognisable as a Shepherd's Purse signature blue cheese and its extra strength will also please those who like a bit more bite to their blue.
