STYLE: BLUE

Grandvewe's Sapphire Blue is a beautiful complex, robust blue made in small batches which vary in strength depending on the ewe milk’s seasonality. With age, Sapphire Blue has a typically Roquefort-esque acidity with a spicy, sea-salty bite and at times shows hints of smoked meat on the finish.

Texturally, Sapphire Blue varies from crumbly through to smooth and creamy, but it’s pretty perfect at any point.
