Blacksticks is the original contemporary farmhouse blue cheese. It burst onto the scene in 2004 unlike anything else in the blue cheese arena; the product of amazing skill and incomparable cheesemaking passion.

Button Mill

A bright, unbelievably soft little cheese that has a truly unique rind and delicate flavours that make it dangerously moreish. The unique cocktail of cultures results in each cheese behaving and maturing in a truly unique way that just grows more and more delicious with each day.

Available in: 150g Round

Sunday Best

This authentic farmhouse Lancashire cheese is lovingly hand made by our Cheesemakers. It's 50 year old family recipe comes from Jean, a 2nd Generation Cheesemaker here at Butlers Farmhouse Cheeses. Sunday Best takes 48 hours to make, and is then aged for a further 18 months.

Available in: 250g Wedge

Kidderton Ash

Kidderton Ash is a handcrafted goat’s cheese log, rolled in ash prior to maturing.

The ash helps a unique rind develop around the cheese, which gives it a contrasted, speckled appearance and helps contain a constantly developing flavour.

Available in: 150g Log

Our range of 'best in class' fridge staples including Goat's Cheese, Tasty Lancs, Creamy Lancs, Crumbly Lancs, Red Leicester and Double Gloucester.

All in 100% recycled packaging and available in 250g Block.

Stratford Blue

A dreamy blue cheese, smooth in texture and with a distinctive taste.

The blue bite of Stratford Blue develops with warmth, but soon mellows in a sea of creaminess, making this cheese truly unique and unbelievably moreish.

Available in: 150g Wedge, Whole Wheel.

Ravens Oak

A creamy white, soft goat's cheese made with milk from our family herd.

Ravens Oak goat's cheese has a subtle nutty flavour reminiscent of almonds, which develop as the cheese naturally matures.

Available in: 150g Round

Beacon Blue

A silky, smooth and elegantly sweet blue goat's milk cheese.

Beacon Blue was the winner of the Best British Blue at the Virtual Cheese Awards 2020.

Available in: 150g Wedge, Whole Wheel.

Classic Territorial Wedges
