Blue Castello

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Blue Castello is a triple-cream blue cow's milk cheese from Denmark that was developed in the 1960's by the Tholstrup cheese company. The washed rind hosts various molds that add to the cheese's mildly spicy flavor. It has a fat content of 70% and a smooth, rich texture much like Brie. Recently purchased "Blue Castello" does not seem to contain the characteristic blue mold. Instead it has added blue plastic-like bands. Regretfully, the taste is no longer that of the original product.
