Derby is a mild, semi-hard [[cows' milk]] [[cheese]] but is usually made with a [[sage]] flavour and known as Sage Derby. The mottled-green colour is from mixing [[sage]] leaves in the curd before it is pressed or by the addition of "green curd" from green [[corn]] or [[spinach]] juice. In the latter case, the flavour has to be created with colourless [[sage]] extract. The [[sage]] gives the [[cheese]] an almost minty flavour. [[Parsley]], [[spinach]] and marigold leaves, bruised and steeped before use, can also be included instead of the [[sage]] leaves.

The first production began in the 17th century and was only made for festive occasions such as harvest and Christmas. However, it is now available all year round.
