Notes: Maytag blue cheese is the gold standard for American bleu. Made in small batches from sweet Holstein milk from a dedicated herd. It is uniform, creamy and strong. Even though I live in central Iowa, I've never had Maytag Blue. You can get it everywhere, and it was great. The perfect strength of bleu flavor. But, that's all there is to it. There's nothing else to the cheese besides creamy texture.
Still, it doesn't get better than this pure bleu cheese.
