Notes: I'm working my way through the cheeses at the Ames British Foods store now. Wensleydale is typically served as a dessert cheese and is often paired with fruits. In fact, there were blueberry and cranberry varieties available, but I went with the natural variety. I liked this cheese. I think I'll get some fresh blueberries and finish off the rest of this cheese.
