This organic Fleet Valley Blue from The Ethical Dairy is a rich, blue cheese with a creamy, silken texture and beautifully balanced depth. Crafted using raw cow’s milk and slowly matured, it’s one to savour, whether you’re building a cheeseboard or adding a bold touch to a simple dish.
What makes me special?
- Creamy, complex flavour. A smooth, silken blue with a rich depth. - Carefully matured. Ripened for three to four months so the flavour can fully develop and fine blue veining spreads evenly through the cheese. - Best way to serve. Add to a cheeseboard or crumble into salads for a rich, savoury lift. - Made with raw organic milk. Traditionally fermented from unpasteurised cow’s milk for a fuller, more complex taste. - Vegetarian-friendly recipe. Made using vegetarian rennet. - Handmade on the farm. Produced in small batches using traditional methods for a consistent, carefully made finish. - From a welfare-first dairy. Made by a pioneering farm that keeps calves with their mothers, allowing them to suckle naturally and wean at their own pace. Cows are milked just once a day so there’s plenty left for their young, creating a slower, more balanced system that puts animal wellbeing first. - 100% pasture-fed herd. The cows graze a diverse mix of grasses, herbs and forage, helping shape the clean, natural flavour of the milk. - Sustainably delivered. Arrives at your table with zero air miles and zero pointless plastic

Producer
Set up in direct opposition to the intensification of dairy farming, The Ethical Dairy at Rainton Farm in south-west Scotland are makers of world-class organic cheeses with a welfare-first approach. Keeping their dairy calves with their mothers for far longer than conventional wisdom dictates allows them to suckle and wean naturally, reducing the stress on both mother and child alike. To them, it’s simple. They don’t want to have to choose between doing what’s right and staying in business – and that makes them the perfect fit for us too.
