Makers of the Signature Dovedale Blue Cheese

This cheese is produced in small batches using only hand-made methods, making it a true artisan product.

Dovedale has been awarded a PDO, meaning that it can only be produced in this part of the world, in the Peak District.

Matured for 6-8 weeks, the cheese has a sumptuous, smooth texture and a delicate, creamy blue flavour.

A Beautifully Balanced Delight – 5 StarsTried the Chocolate & Chilli Cheese from Hartington Creamery and it was absolutely stunning. The texture was smooth, the balance between chocolate, cheese, and that gentle chilli warmth was spot on. Gave it as a twist on Easter gifts this year and it went down a treat. A real favourite now. Delivery was prompt and packaging lovely – brilliant service all round. Highly recommend!
