Original Blue is a beautiful, aged, blue farmstead cheese made from raw cow's milk by the famed California fromagerie Port Reyes. The paste is chalky white and the blue-grey veins give an appearance of marble.

This widely acclaimed cheese is dense and soft, moist and creamy. The flavor is slightly tangy and not too sharp; it is aged for a minimum of 6 months, but the cheese will not be overwhelming to the inexperienced; when Roquefort or Stilton are too strong, try the Original Blue. Port Reyes' Original Blue is certified Kosher for Dairy and is certified gluten-free. The cheese has no rind and will do fine in salads and on cheese boards.

We cut and wrap this cheese in wedges of 8 ounces and 1 pound.
