Prom Country Poppet Pyramid
Traditional pyramid with herb. Vegetarian rennet. Farmhouse-style sheep cheese with a creamy, fine texture, a pure white body and virtually no rind. As it gets older, a light bloomy rind develops. It is sprinkled with seasonal herbs.
Poppet of course is a word of endearment, and it may well be a case of “love at first taste”. It had to be called Poppet, considering the coal mining history of the Gippsland region and the shape of the poppet head that lifted the coal to the surface.
The shape of Poppet actually promotes a silky-soft texture, a perfect match for the subtle herb flavours that permeate the cheese.

Formaggio Pecora Di Bitti
Extraordinary sheep milk cheese from a very artisanal production. The tradition of Sardinian cheesemaking is renewed in this organic brand new product.
Grand Formaggio Di Pecora Sardo
This is a Sardinian pecorino cheese, cooked, coagulated with calf rennet. The flavour highlights the scent of the Mediterranean pastures on which they feed the sheep. Was established with the intent to use all substances present in milk, essential for our body, thus improving the nutritional aspect and in particular, one linked to the digestibility of fat and milk protein. During his long ripening occurs a strong proteolysis and lipolysis: both proteins that fats are broken down into smaller organic molecules, making the product easy assimilation by the body and easier to digest. In addition to the low salt content and the large content of calcium lactate, it is recommended in any diet food, as in that of hypertensive, but also to strengthen the skeletal system and prevent osteoporosis.
Prom Country Kongwak Reserve with native Mountain Pepper Berry

Morbidi Pecorino Fogliano whole wheel 800g approx.
Cacio di Fogliano means “Fogliano cheese”: It is the place where the ewes are raised directly by the producer, 2 km from Siena, in Tuscany. A cheese made from raw milk, with no additives other than rennet and salt: its taste changes depending on the time of year, depending on the herbs on which the sheep eat. Pecorino is a famous sheep’s cheese produced in several regions of Italy. Besides Tuscany, we can mention Sardinia, Abruzzo, Lazio or Calabria. Morbidi has existed since 1941 in the region of Siena, therefore. It was originally a cooperative intended to produce the most classic products of the famous Tuscan charcuterie. In 1960 Morbidi started producing cheeses made from sheep’s milk. Since 1980, the Morbidi family has been at the helm of this family-sized, family-run business, which uses only Tuscan sheep’s milk.
Cacio di Fogliano matured sheep’s cheese is ideal as an aperitif, as a snack, for any snack. Store in a cool place and then in the refrigerator after opening. The marriage is perfect with a Tuscan red wine like a Chianti, a white like a Vernaccia di San Giminano a rosé like our rosé from Tuscany Etel.
