A variety of English cheese that was, in years past, traditionally made only with the milk from Gloucester cows, which are now almost extinct. There are two types of Gloucester cheese: Single and Double. The main difference is that Single Gloucester is made with skim milk and Double Gloucester is made from whole milk. Both types have a natural rind and a hard texture. This cheese is also available as a Gloucester-Stilton combination with the Gloucester cheese layered over and alternating with inner layers of Stilton blue cheese. The flavors of both cheeses compliment each other to provide a distinctive tasting appetizer or dessert cheese.
