More about Stinking Bishop ... Stinking Bishop is a washed rind cheese dating back to the Cistercian monks. Stinking Bishop is washed in fermented pear juice (also called "Perry"), and the cheese develops a stinky, pungent, orange-colored, sticky rind as to get technical, Brevibacterium linens ripen the cheese from the inside out.
Produced by the infamous Charles Martell, a Glouster cheesemaker of some distinction, who besides producing great Double and Single Gloustershires, also has an enthusiasm for Perry.
This interest led to Charles tracking down numerous old Pear varieties and the creation of the first national collection. Today, his best known cheese, Stinking Bishop, brings these two interests together, since it's curds are washed in perry.
There's no doubt that Martell has created a cheese of some distinction, smelly for sure, not disimilar to Pont L'Eveque or Epoisses, but with a delightful taste – sweetish and, despite what the smell might suggest, actually not overwhelmingly strong.Product Origin; Dymock, Gloustershire
