American Cheese Society Judging & Competition Awards - 1st Place

2016

Blackstone cheese is a semi-soft cheese characterized by its unique appearance and flavor profile. It has a smooth, creamy texture with a rich taste, combining the earthy notes of cow’s milk with hints of herbs and spices. What sets Blackstone cheese apart visually is its striking black rind, created from a blend of edible vegetable ash and spices, which gives it a bold, artisanal look.


This cheese often has a slightly tangy undertone and pairs well with crackers, fresh fruits, or can be melted over dishes. It is a versatile cheese that can be enjoyed on a cheese board or used in culinary recipes.
