Cropwell Bishop: Stilton Perfection Since 1847

For over 175 years, Cropwell Bishop has crafted Stilton with unwavering dedication to quality and tradition. As one of only six dairies licensed to make authentic Stilton PDO, they maintain standards that honour this prestigious cheese's heritage. Their Blue Stilton develops rich, creamy texture and complex blue veining through careful ageing - not rushed, not forced, simply given the time needed to achieve perfection. From traditional Blue Stilton to their renowned White Stilton varieties, each cheese represents generations of accumulated expertise and pride in craft.

What distinguishes Cropwell Bishop is consistency meeting excellence - every wheel meets exacting standards, yet each develops its own character through traditional make and natural ageing. Their Stilton graces Christmas tables, appears in fine restaurants, and delights cheese connoisseurs who recognise genuine quality. Perfect for experiencing Stilton as it should be - rich, complex, and satisfying in ways that justify its status as Britain's most famous cheese. This is traditional British cheesemaking at its most refined and accomplished.
