For creating blue cheese in the first place, we owe thanks to a
micro-organism named Penicillium roqueforti. This microscopic spore
attaches itself to a young cheese and, assuming the cheese is laced with
small cracks, multiplies and spreads blue mold throughout as the cheese
matures. By the way, this little microbe is also the principal agent used
in creating penicillin, the world's first antibiotic. And now, back to the
cheese...
Roquefort: The world's oldest known blue cheese. It is made from
sheep's milk and can only be produced and aged in a specific region in
France, also named Roquefort. Exceptionally tangy!
Mountain Gorgonzola: Another ancient blue, this one hails from
northern Italy. It has a firm yet springy texture and a mellow bite that
melts in your mouth.
Roaring Forties: A modern blue from King Island, Australia. We are
astounded by its creamy, delicious flavor every time we sample it.
This assortment includes one half-pound of Roquefort, one half-pound of
Mountain Gorgonzola, and 5 ounces of Roaring Forties.
