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.
Wouldn’t be a cheese I would normally pick off the shelf – especially at that price. I love the Castello creamy blue so would normally default to that. But I had a tasting of this and was pleasantly surprised. It was very creamy with a great aftertaste. it’s perfectly matched with a Chardonnay and would make a great addition to a platter. Because of it’s strong taste I think it works well as part of a mezee of other flavours rather than just as a cheese and cracker on its own.
