Generally I like cheese, but I don't see the point of the really stink stuff, and blue cheese should be outlawed, or perhaps only fed to french people.
Black Bomber is great but I do like a really mature Stilton that has reached the stage where it is so soft that it can be spread on toast. It does stink out the fridge, though.

i don't mind stinky cheese as long as it has a taste. don't like these exceptionally stinky types that are rather bland when you have a bite.
i am a big fan of blue cheese though, can't beat a bit of blue on a plate with carved ham, apples and some pickle. or hell just on its own with some grapes.

Stinking Bishop sounds about as appealing as Malodorous Vicar..... never tried it.
I like to visit the creamery in Hawes - where you can try thumb size portions of all the cheeses they produce. Bishopdale is currently my favourite, but I am partial to the Wensleydale too.
If you go there -just remember not to tell people you have been visiting Hawes!

Is Stinking Bishop an anglo-market coup for Pont L'Eveque? I first came across it when I was about 14, and to answer those who dislike smelly but bland cheeses such as Brie and crap Camembert, Pont L'Eveque is like a strong flavoured camembert with added socks, and a smattering of goat. I love it.

[QUOTE 2358690, member: 259"]It's alright. They obviously use the "Stinking" bit as a marketing ploy, but so what?[/quote]
The name comes from the perry of the variety of pear into which the cheese is "washed". Madeby Charles Martell, an exceptional gifted cheesemaker IMO - he also makes fantastic other cheses, single and double gloucester and a more rare chesse called single berkerley which is very very tasty, and has a lovely mottled appearance.

P.S. Stinking Bishop is okay, but after years of washing the smell off my hands I got a bit bloody fed up of it!
