Flora Nelle Blue

From: $30.00

A seasonal, springtime blue cheese inspired by European blue cheese recipes and the legacies of our grandmothers. Flora Nelle’s natural rind and traditional rennet produce beautiful and distinctive blue marbling with a layered, spicy, and savory flavor experience.

“For this recipe, I was inspired by the consistency of the classic Bleu de Gex and flavor of Bleu d’Auvergne.  I combined the recipes and created an American original that is loved by chefs and connoisseurs. It is a tribute to our families and particularly to my grandmother, Nelle.” -David Gremmels, Rogue Creamery President and Head Cheesemaker

First introduced in 2011, Flora Nelle left the marketplace in 2017 to allow Rogue Creamery to develop new recipes. Now Flora Nelle is back for 2022 as a seasonal cheese, exclusively available at RogueCreamery.com this spring!

Ingredients: USDA Certified Organic Pasteurized Cow Milk, Salt, Enzymes, Cheese Cultures, Penicillium Roqueforti

Note: Unlike all of Rogue Creamery’s other cheeses, Flora Nelle is not a vegetarian product.
