Published On: August 20, 2025

Hartington Creamery, an award-winning cheesemaker based in Matlock, has proudly announced the relaunch of its Skegness Blue cheese. This distinctive blue cheese is crafted using a traditional Lincolnshire recipe, a testament to the region's rich dairy heritage. It masterfully combines time-honored cheesemaking techniques with the finest ingredients to create a truly unique flavor experience.

The result is a bold, creamy soft blue with a complex flavor profile that is both sharp and sweet, complemented by a texture that achieves a perfect balance of crumbly and smooth.

A Cheese Inspired by a Community

According to Robert Gosling, Managing Director of Hartington Creamery, the Skegness Blue is more than just a cheese, it's a tribute to the unique character and vibrant history of Lincolnshire. The name "Skegness Blue" was chosen to honor the popular coastal town and its strong community spirit. In a delightful nod to the town's identity, the label features the iconic mascot, the Jolly Fisherman, making it a product with both local pride and a story to tell.

The creamery anticipates that this special cheese will become a firm favorite among both local residents and visitors who are looking for an authentic taste of the region.

Availability and Purchase Information

The Skegness Blue is the latest addition to Hartington Creamery's esteemed portfolio of artisan cheeses. It is now available in various local shops, delis, and farmers' markets across Lincolnshire. For those wishing to purchase it from outside the area, it can also be bought directly from the creamery's website. The cheese is offered in two convenient sizes: 160g wedges, perfect for a cheeseboard, and 2.2kg wheels for a larger-scale indulgence.
