Not new as far as I know. It is available at most supermarkets including Tesco or also can be sourced online

You could try crumbly Lancashire. Which Supermarket do you use for your online order?

Cropwell Bishop White Stilton at Waitrose.
Hartington White Stilton from their own dairy/creamery:

Thanks- has it always been produced, or is it a new thing. I am a huge fan of Stilton and believe it is the best blue in the world ... but.

At a tangent, can never quite understand the 'white' Stilton thing. I lived for such a long time in Stilton country, and next to a farm where it was first made, linked to pork raising and pork pies ... but the whole point of it, is that it is blue, no?
Well, no
White Stilton is made to the same PDO protected standards as Blue Stilton, but without the penicillium roqueforti mould which creates the veins. The result is a delicate white cheese with a fresh mild taste and crumbly texture. White stilton is a young cheese and is usually sold at just 4 weeks old.

Hope someone can help you.

Where can I buy White Stilton. The only supermarket I found it in was Morrisons.
Housebound at present so wondered if there was a similar tasting cheese that my online supermarket would have.
