A milky and buttery taste with notes of tropical fruit and green peppers which is derived from the natural, red smear on the rind and the albino blue mould inside. As Marquis matures, the taste and flavour of the read smear become slightly sharper, while the cheese itself gets more character. Castello Marquis is a truly special cheese. Its taste and flavour are intense and piquant. Thanks to the unique production method, the mould culture develops from the inside of the cheese, whereas the red smear does so from the outside. Its consistency is creamy.
Was not a fan. I liked that the blue flavour was very subtle but it didn’t mix with the sweet flavour very well at all. This is just my opinion and I’m sure other people would love this sort of cheese.

Unfortunately, none of my family is keen on Soft cheese. We gave it to friends who did love it.

This cheese wouldn’t be out of place on a platter with the finest French cheeses. It’s creamy and has a beautiful depth of flavour. Delicious!
