It was introduced in 1995 and won a British Cheese Awards gold medal in 1997. Yorkshire Blue is a creamy, sweet, moist blue, it is mellow but not mild. Also made by Shepherds Purse is the now famous Fine Fettle Yorkshire cheese that was called Yorkshire feta before the 10 year battle to save the name failed and was re-named in May 2007, it is a tasty cheese which is less salty than the Greek Feta. It is especially good in pastries; also in salads.

Yorkshire Blue


Yorkshire Blue's recipe was developed from the traditional blue Wensleydale recipe, which had been extinct since the 1960s. After skilled work by the product development team, we had our Continental style full fat blue cheese. Yorkshire Blue is produced from fresh cows' milk collected from local farmers in the northern end of the Vale of York. Guided gently along it's 10 week maturation period this cheese has a creamy texture which when at room temperature develops a slightly sweet, full, round, mellow taste. Suitable for vegetarians.

Fine fettle'

Fine Fettle


When is Feta not Feta? When it's made in Yorkshire according to the powers that be within the EU! Despite this we still believe our Fine Fettle Yorkshire Cheese is the best Feta in the world! We hand wax the cheese in a two-tone green/natural wax, which gives Fine Fettle Yorkshire Cheese individuality on busy deli counters. Fine Fettle Yorkshire Cheese is hand-made from 100% fresh whole ewes milk giving Fine Fettle Yorkshire Cheese its' distinctive creaminess and subtle taste. Lightly salted and matured over a 14 day period (at least) allows the cheese to develop it's soft, slightly crumbly texture with a sweet piquant flavour.

Basilano is a white cheese made from sheep’s milk, which is marinated in herbs.Sheeps milk is has naturally higher levels of poly and monounsaturated fats than ordinary cow’s milk and has been suggested that it is a healthy alternative as it is low in cholesterol. Basilano also has high moisture content. This combines to give a cheese with a total fat content of around 20% (ordinary cheddar cheese can be between 35% and 40% fat). People who are allergic to cow’s milk products can often eat Sheeps milk products without any allergic symptoms arising.
