Size - 200g

Lanark Blue is Scotland’s answer to Roquefort — and what a great answer it is! This renowned farmhouse cheese is handcrafted entirely at Errington’s farm in Lanarkshire, an idyllic setting for cheese production.Made from raw milk from the farm’s own Lacaune sheep, vegetarian rennet, and a touch of magic, this outstanding blue cheese features a compact, slightly crumbly paste.On the palate, you'll experience a complex blend of flavours, with sweet and nutty notes emerging after the initial saltiness of the blue mould.Enjoy Lanark Blue with full-bodied red wines, red dessert wines, and craft ales for a delightful pairing.

Cheesemaker: Errington Cheese

The Errington family, originally from Dumfriesshire, relocated to Lanarkshire in 1981, establishing a mixed farming enterprise with beef cattle and sheep. In the 1980s, Humphrey Errington started making cheese aiming to revive the tradition of raw milk cheese in Scotland.Today, Humphrey's daughter, Selina Cairns, carries on the farming and cheesemaking legacy, being one of the few in the UK to produce cheese from both sheep's and goat's milk.The farm is home to around 100 goats, a mix of Saanen, Toggenburg, and Alpine breeds, whose milk is used to make Elrick Log, alongside their flock of Lacaune and Friesian sheep.
