Midnight Blue | Local Cheese From Colorado, United States of America | TasteAtlas

Midnight Blue

Midnight Blue is an American semi-soft blue cheese originating from Colorado. Made from raw milk of Saneen, Alpine, and Nubian goats, the cheese has a dense and slightly dry texture and natural rind. The body is semi-soft and filled with blue veins, the aroma is goaty, while the flavors are spicy, peppery, pungent, and sharp.


This blue cheese is usually aged for 2 to 4 months. During that period, it develops its peppery flavors which get more accentuated as the cheese matures. It is recommended to pair Midnight Blue with wildflower honey and a glass of dry sherry.
