If you like goat’s cheese, you will love Caprinelle – a beautiful semi-hard goat’s milk tomme from Southern France. It has a delightful goat’s milk flavour with a surprisingly creamy finish for a semi-hard cheese. Fresh, clean citrus notes shine through with just a whisper of butterscotch and salt on the back palate. A timeless classic that pairs well with a variety of sparkling and white wines.

Latteria Vecchio
NB: Cheese delivered to selected postcodes within the greater Sydney metropolitan area only.
Latteria Vecchio is an incredibly popular choice for cheese and antipasto platters. Our artisan version has everything you expect from a well-matured, hard Italian cheese – notes of milk and herbs on the front palate and then a slightly savoury bite to finish with a whisper of fruitiness. Notes of salted caramel or butterscotch might be present in extra mature cheeses. The name ‘latteria’ is a variation on the Italian word for community dairy (latterie) and vecchio = old/matured.

Comté AOP, Marcel Petite Fort St An. matured 36months
Our 36 month Comté from Marcel Petite has been specially matured to develop an amazingly complex flavour that will have you coming back for more and more – sweet roasted nuts, hints of yeastiness, rich cream and an echo of grassy mountain pastures. The texture retains a smooth consistency, but becomes firm and condensed over time. Small, white amino acid crystals can be seen through-out the interior – the sign of a well matured cheese.

Mimolette 24months+ Matured
Known for its striking deep-orange colour, Mimolette was apparently created to mimic Dutch cheeses during a time of trade restrictions. While the colour may suggest a ‘strong, bitey’ cheese, the flavour is actually quite round and smooth. It has a predominantly hazelnutty flavour with hints of salt and butterscotch on the end palate. Mimolette is very wine friendly, pairing well with a variety of sparkling, white and red wines.

The cheese: This full-flavoured pecorino is matured the traditional way – on pine boards in a stone cellar, known as a grotta. It is coated with fresh hay when it is young to protect the cheese and to add a deep, complex grassy flavour that compliments the rich, buttery flavours of the sheep’s milk. The cheese develops a subtle savoury bite. It is smooth and even on the tongue, coating the entire palate with the flavours of the Tuscan countryside.

Roquefort AOP Carles
Roquefort is one of the most famous French AOP cheeses. The flavour is big and bold with a burst of spicy blue mould on the front palate. The finish is creamy – but in an entirely different way to a cow’s milk cheese – more grassy and nutty, very deep and lingering. A salty note hums away in the background, bringing balance to all the flavours. Serve the French way – on a baguette with farmhouse butter and truffle honey.

Stracco di Capra
This cheese is a goat’s milk version of Taleggio. It has the same pungent, savoury rind but the goat’s milk adds a unique twist to the flavour – creamy with an underlying floral note and subtle lactic finish. Under the rosy rind the interior is smooth and creamy and melts in your mouth.
