Brighton Blue is an English blue cheese made from cow's milk, and descriptions place the make in Sussex. The paste is yellow and semi-soft, with blue-green veins through a creamy body. The rind is edible, and it is left on for flavor as well as for a neat finish. Young cheese tastes mild and a little salty, with a mellow blue note rather than a harsh one. It is a board cheese and a cooking cheese, not a hard grating block.
