What is Huntsman Cheese?
Huntsman comes from the United Kingdom, one of over 700 named British cheeses produced there.
It is not a single curd but a combination of two established cheeses: Double Gloucester and Stilton. Double Gloucester is a semi-hard Gloucestershire cheese traditionally made from unpasteurised milk. Stilton carries a Protected Designation of Origin and, in its blue form, a strong smell and taste.
The result puts a mild orange cheese next to a blue one in the same piece.
