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.

Infossato Pecorino Casa Madaio
Infossato is matured in a pit in the ground lined with hay and ferns – an ancient practice through-out central and southern Italy. Over time the cheese develops a sharp sweet/savoury bite, a deep golden colour and firm, crumbly texture. Ideal for anyone who likes a full-flavoured pecorino with some bite – but not too salty. A great choice for antipasti platters or shaving into salads and onto woodfired pizza. From artisan cheese-makers and affineurs Casa Madaio.

Herve Mons Beaufort Chalet d’Alpage Aop
Beaufort is rightfully known as the ‘Prince of Gruyères’ for its smooth texture and lingering flavours of melted butter and sweet floral notes. We select only the d’Alpage (alpine) version: these cheeses can only be made in mountain chalets with rich Summer milk. Beaufort can often seem mild at first, but after a few moments the depth of flavour overtakes your entire palate – creamy, floral, herbaceous and nutty with hints of yeastiness.
