Applewood Blue
Description
Applewood Blue is a beautifully balanced blue cheese from Prom Country Cheese in South Gippsland, combining gentle blue veining with an intriguing touch of smoke.
Supple in texture, it begins with a mild, savoury blue character before a soft sweetness starts to emerge. What really sets it apart is the finish — a subtle whisper of smoke that lingers on the palate without overpowering the cheese.
Approachable enough for those who prefer a gentler blue, but with enough character to keep blue cheese lovers interested, Applewood Blue is a wonderfully distinctive addition to an Australian cheeseboard.
