Black & Blue is one of two goat's-milk blue cheeses manufactured by FireFly Farms, Inc. of Accident, Maryland. (The other is Mountain Top Bleu.)

Of FireFly Farms' two blue cheeses, Black & Blue is harder in texture and stronger in flavor (both as regarding its characteristic blue cheese flavor, and as regarding its goats' milk flavor).

The name comes from the fact that it is a blue cheese packed in black wax. The cheese is sold in wheels. As is typical of most cheeses manufactured in the United States, the name is a proprietary name given by FireFly Farms.
