Dragons Breath Blue is a small blue cheese from Nova Scotia, Canada, made from cow's milk. It is surface-ripened, then sealed in black wax, and the paste runs from soft and creamy to a firmer buttery body. The aroma is strong, and the taste is pungent, spicy, and salty, with a briny moisture that often collects inside the wax. You do not slice it like a large wheel. You open the top and spoon out what you want to eat.
