Attention lovers of Roquefort and Camembert. The cheese called “The Minger” will soon appear in supermarkets for the end-of-year holidays and according to Rory Stones, its creator, it is the smelliest cheese in the world. “It feels as if something had gone wrong,” explains the Briton in the columns of Sky News.

Made by the Highland Fine Cheeses company, The Minger visually resembles maroilles with its orange rind and soft paste. Only it doesn’t smell like it. According to Rory Stones, cheese is downright “a stench to the nose.” “For some people it’s just too much, it smells too bad and they don’t want to have it in the house,” he continues.

A “very mild” taste

This very strong smell is not an accident. It was deliberately sought after when the cheese was created in 2017, indicates Le Huffington Post. A big fan of French cheeses, Rory Stones admits that he wanted to copy their smell. But be careful of appearances. The Briton claims that the taste of Minger has nothing to do with its smell and is “very mild”.

Until now, The Minger was only sold in grocery stores and farms in the north of Scotland. For the end of the year, the curious will be able to find it on the shelves of Asda supermarkets in Great Britain. “If you take it home and put it in the refrigerator, its smell will fill the room in less than half an hour,” warns its creator.
