Hervé Mons Brebis Fougere
Translate by “Ewe fern”, this semi soft sheep’s milk washed is dressed with a little fern sprig. As the cheese looks not offensive in flavours, after the first bite you will be wowed by a pleasant but strong “sheepish” flavour. The gritty rind fades away quickly in mouth, a long lasting earthy and nutty flavour.

Quadrello
We source this cheese directly from a farmhouse buffalo dairy we found on our travels in Northern Italy – they make cheese each day with milk from their own herd. Quadrello is a bit like a buffalo milk version of Taleggio – a pungent, savoury rind on the outside and a creamy, semi-firm texture inside with a beautiful sweet finish thanks to the rich buffalo milk – delicious on cheese or antipasto platters and paired with a glass of Pinot Grigio or Pinot Noir.

Montasio Stravecchio Dop
Montasio is the most famous mountain cheese from the north-eastern Italian region of Friuli. We select only very mature wheels (around 3 years old) as the extended aging leads to the development of a subtle, savoury bite perfectly balanced with notes of cream and tropical fruit on the finish – especially pineapple. Montasio is a very popular cheese that works well with pre-dinner drinks, cheese boards and antipasto platters.

Gorgonzola with Truffle
NB: Cheese delivered to selected postcodes within the greater Sydney metropolitan area only.
This is a ‘Dolce Latte’ Gorgonzola with shaved truffle throughout. The cheese is sweet and creamy with a very mild spiciness coming from the thin blue veins. The truffles add an extra layer of flavour without overpowering the delicate cheese. The finish is creamy and mushroomy, with a hint of warmth and a backnote of truffle.

This cheese may look unassuming, but don’t be fooled – it has a strong, spicy flavour. After spending 2 months aging on wooden boards, the wheels are coated with herbs and packed into wooden barrels to mature even further – it is during this time that the bold earthy flavours, herbaceous notes and deep spiciness develop.
