About

A soft washed-rind cheese. The color ranges from white/yellow to beige, with an orange to grey rind. Stinking Bishop's notorious odor, which is said to be similar to unwashed socks, keeps it popular in the UK and abroad. The distinctive odor comes from the process in which the cheese is washed during its ripening; it is immersed in perry made from the local Stinking Bishop pear.
