This excellent Danish Blue ("Danablu") is made by St. Clemens Dairy, a cheese producer founded by in 1950 on Denmark's island of Bornholm. Bornholm is nicknamed "the Sunshine Island" because its remote position in the middle of the Baltic Sea gives it a special sunlight and more hours of daylight than just about anywhere else in Scandinavia. This exposure to the sun creates the island's lush grazing pastures. Green Island Danish Crumbly Blue comes from the milk of the cows that graze on these pristine grasslands.

Green Island Blue is the consummate salad cheese, excellent crumbled atop a bed a leafy greens and drizzled with balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil. This predominantly white cheese has a delicate network of blue-green veins. Green Island Blue develops a complex, earthy flavor during its 8-12 week maturation period. Its crumbly texture and more-mild-than-Roquefort flavor exemplifies why this Danish blue cheese has made such an indelible mark in the culinary world. Green Island Danish Crumbly Blue can be used as a special dessert cheese with fresh fruits like strawberries, pears, or peaches. It is also great in recipes that call for Crumbly Blue or Roquefort.

St. Clemens Dairy has won numerous prestigious awards for its Green Island Danish Crumbly Blue, most recently capturing Gold at the 2014 World Cheese Championships.

  • Made from pasteurized cow's milk.

What’s the best way to store my cheese?
The best way to keep cheese fresh is to store it in the vegetable crisper in your fridge. Before doing so, wrap in parchment or wax paper, then wrap loosely in plastic wrap. You can also buy our exclusive cheese storage bags, specially created to keep your cheese fresher, longer.

Unless used for cooking, we don’t recommend storing cheese in the freezer as this will alter its texture.

What is the best temperature to serve my cheese?
Remove cheese from the fridge an hour before serving, as cheese is best experienced at room temperature to enjoy the full spectrum of flavors.

How long will my cheese stay fresh in the refrigerator?
The length of time cheeses last in the fridge after opening depends largely on the type of cheese. Soft varieties tend to spoil more quickly than hard varieties. Please refer to the table below for a convenient reference:

How We Ship

FreshWave Packaging

Our products are always shipped so they will arrive at your door in optimal condition! We’ve carefully selected packaging options that have minimal impact on the environment without compromising on food safety or quality. 

For perishable orders, we line our shipping boxes with Tempguard - a unique, padded insulator made of 100% pre-consumer recycled paper material. We further control the temperature with recycled kraft paper fill and non-toxic frozen gel packs. In the summer months, we may include dry ice to ensure fresh delivery in very hot weather.
