I first tasted this cheese when I was in the UK and I was so happy to find it on igourmet. I introduced it to some of my friends and everyone thought it was fantastic. It is a step above your run of the mill blue cheeses, and even though the taste is bold, it is not overwhelming and not as salty as many blue. If you like blue chesses you should definitely give it a try. You'll never go back!

Place on steak for last min. of cooking along with some crumbled bacon. After removing from heat, place sliced tomatoes on top and serve. Best steak you'll ever eat!

This is one of the best blue cheeses I've ever tasted. It has the flavor of farmhouse Ireland; its bovine origins come through.

I have tried dozens of blue cheeses. This is the one I like the best. Exceptional taste and smoothness. My most frequent use is to use it as a spread on "chunks" of warm baggette as a meal. One minor reservation. On rare instances the quality is not consistent. Good wheels are exceptional. Poor wheels are no better than many other brands. I strongly recommend you try this.

One of the best Blues I've tried. Sweet and creamy like a gorgonzola. Blue vein is present but not overpowering. A solid addition to a cheese board.
