Researchers at the Universities of Nottingham and Northampton have determined the source of Stilton’s distinctive smell – Y.lipolytica. This is a particular type of ‘secondary microflora’ which boosts the smell of blue cheese. This exciting discovery has been shared with Colston Bassett and other East Midlands cheesemakers with the intention of achieving an even more appetising aroma.
