Perl Las Blue

A beautifully balanced organic Welsh blue cheese with creamy texture and lingering depth

Perl Las Blue is an award-winning organic blue cheese made by Caws Cenarth in Carmarthenshire, Wales. Crafted using organic cow’s milk and traditional methods, it is widely regarded as one of Britain’s finest modern blue cheeses—combining richness, balance, and distinctive character.

The cheese develops a pale gold natural rind, protecting a pale yellow paste delicately marbled with blue and green veining. Its texture is smooth and creamy, becoming softer and more yielding as it matures while maintaining structure and balance.

The flavour is refined and expressive. It opens with rich creaminess and gentle savoury notes, followed by a subtle saltiness that enhances the depth of flavour without overwhelming the palate. As the cheese matures, the blue character intensifies, bringing greater complexity and a long, lingering finish. Despite this depth, Perl Las retains remarkable balance and elegance.

Judges at the Organic Food Awards described Perl Las as “lovely and unique with a strong lingering flavour,” a testament to its distinctive character and exceptional craftsmanship.

Made using organic milk and matured with care, Perl Las reflects both the purity of its ingredients and the expertise of its makers. It is a cheese that offers depth and complexity while remaining approachable and incredibly enjoyable.

Cut to order at The Norfolk Deli, every piece is prepared fresh to ensure optimal flavour and condition.
