Mrs Bell's Blue is a cheese produced by Shepherds Purse Cheeses Ltd., a renowned British cheese-making company. This particular cheese is known for its distinctive blue veining and rich, creamy texture. It is made from sheep's milk, which gives it a unique, slightly sweet and nutty flavor that distinguishes it from blue cheeses made from cow's milk.
Shepherds Purse Cheeses, based in Thirsk, North Yorkshire, specializes in making a variety of artisan cheeses, including the award-winning blue cheese, Harrogate Blue, and the sheep milk cheese, Yorkshire Pecorino. The company was established in 1989 by Judy Bell and is known for using cow's milk, sheep's milk, and water buffalo milk.
