Blacksticks Velvet cheese
Blacksticks Velvet is an artisan, softish, blue, pasteurised ewes’ milk cheese produced by Butler’s Speciality Cheeses, at Wilson Fields Farm in Inglewhite near Preston.
Made from local British Friesland ewes’ milk, Blacksticks Velvet has an incredibly smooth and velvety texture. Due to the natural lambing cycle of British Friesland sheep, the cheese is only available from April until November.
The cheese was tested in 25 Marks and Spencer stores during November 2008. The results were tremendous and it is now becoming more widely available.
