Pecorino Di Farindola Presidio Slow Food
This is not any ordinary Pecorino !It’s made from Pig’s rennet which is probably the only cheese in the world using such an old technique, dating to the Roman times. Farindola has been known for it’s flock of sheep and cheese making tradition. Hand crafted in small quantities, Pecorino di Farindola can only be produced by women, who hand down the recipe from generation to generation, with milk sourced from hand-milked sheep that are reared in the wild for a large part of the year. Under the yellow/brown rind, the paste is grainy, straw yellow in colour and slightly moist, even when the cheese has matured for a long time – a result of the rennet and production method. The taste is like no other with musky aromas well balanced by a smooth and creamy texture.

Toma Blue alla Erbe
NB: Cheese delivered to selected postcodes within the greater Sydney metropolitan area only.
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.

Gorgonzola Dolce Latte Dop
This is the milder version of Gorgonzola – sweet and gentle, rich and creamy. There is still a touch of spice from the pale blue mould, but it is quickly tamed by the incredible creaminess of this cheese. Gorgonzola Dolce Latte has a luscious texture with some super-runny patches here and there. Even people who say they don’t like blue cheese like this.

Parmigiano Reggiano Dop Organic
The King of Cheeses – a great Parmigiano Reggiano like this is a kitchen staple. Our 36 month reggiano from Cantarelli is sweet and savoury with a well-balanced bite. It also has an amazing texture – crumbly and flaky, but still incredibly moist – the result of aging in the family’s naturally ventilated cheese caves, used since the 1800’s for maturing Parmigiano Reggiano. Don’t let a single gram go to waste – use the rind to flavour soups and stocks (discard before serving). Each wedge comes packaged in a special foil to protect the cheese from oxidisation.

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.
