Meaning and Origin
Stilton is a type of blue cheese that originated in the 18th century in the village of Stilton. It is made from cow's milk and has a characteristic blue-green mold that gives it its distinctive appearance and flavor.
The exact origins of Stilton cheese are unknown, but it is believed to have been developed by a local farmer or dairyman. The cheese quickly became popular and was soon being sold in London and other cities. By the early 19th century, Stilton was one of the most popular cheeses in England.
Stilton cheese is protected by a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) status, which means that it can only be produced in certain areas of England, including the counties of Leicestershire, Derbyshire, and Nottinghamshire.
