WHAT IT TASTES LIKE:  Rich, creamy, buttery and moist, fresh and sweet when young, becoming powerful and pungent with age.

WHERE IT COMES FROM: Hand-made in Lanarkshire by Selina Cairns of Errington Cheese, Carnwath, where rich raw milk from the family herd of Lacaune ewes is pumped straight into the cheesemaking vats, preserving the flavour of the local terroir. Dubbed ‘Scotland’s Roquefort’, it is an iconic cheese of the British artisan scene. Matured for around six weeks for early eating, up to eight months for a more powerful blue.
