Waratah - Sheep Milk
A special treat for serious cheeselovers!
Pure sheep cheese, oozing with gentle, complex flavours. A cheese that displays the finest qualities of sheep milk, finishing with the back-palate softness so typical of sheep cheese. Soft smear-ripened cheese with a luscious texture and delectable flavours, lingering on the palate with a final sweetness. The golden aura of this style develops naturally from flora associated with vineyards. The aroma and flavour integrate and intensify with age, and the warmer the cheese becomes, the more powerful is this effect. Bring to room temperature for one hour before serving. May become sticky, stinky and extreme when fully mature.

Black Sheep Log - Sheep Milk
Rich Farmhouse Sheep Cheese dusted with vine charcoal
Log - Size: 5x10cm long - Weight: approx. 150g
Distinctive - Fudgy - Smooth - Dense - Nutritious
Black Sheep is unique farmhouse-style cheese rarely seen in Australia, named after some of the coloured Moyarra ewes that supply the milk. Black sheep are known to have a particular character and attitude than stands them apart from the flock.
Each log is gently hand ladled from 500ml of ewes’ milk curd, and lightly salted.
A melt-in-the-mouth, dense, creamy cheese with an attractive, mottled , silvery-white rind that develops after 2 weeks' maturation, as the distinctive flora grows through the layer of vine charcoal - house-made from Gippsland Wine Company (Loch) Cabernet vine prunings, and dusted lightly onto the surface. This neutralises some lactic acid which sweetens the cheese, and assists development of the wrinkly rind.
Serving
May be enjoyed from 2 weeks old (mild with yoghurt-like, fresh flavour), but beyond one month the brittle core softens throughout to become a spicey, oozing cheese. Allow it to warm well at room temperature before serving.
Match with full-bodied red wine and fresh (or preserved) fruits.
Try Gippsland Wine Company Gustoso – Moyarra Vineyard.
Mature lactic curd with a firm, dense texture. Coated in handmade vine charcoal.
Poppet - Sheep Milk
Fresh lactic curd pyramid coated with savory herbs.
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.
Pyramid (semi-matured) - Seasonal - Weight approx. 180g
Serve with Chardonnay, or
Loch Brewery Golden ale
Distinctive - Creamy - Smooth - Dense - Nutritious
Sheep Sensation is a unique, farmhouse-style cheese. A slow-make technique develops a fine, close texture with a creamy, luscious mouth feel. The body is covered in a wrinkled, bloomy white rind. The flavour is distinctively different - a balance between sweet and sour, and long on the palate. Melts in the mouth. The aroma is of the farm, reminiscent of freshly-cut grass.
Sheep Sensation can be enjoyed at any stage, from fresh (3-5 days), to creamy (14 days) to semi-matured (3-4 weeks) to aged (2-3 months), when it develops a waxy-smooth, drier texture with concentrated flavours and a peppery finish.
Sheep Sensation has amazing characteristics, controlled by the rind flora, which allow it to mature gracefully into a parmesan-style grating cheese. The moulds slowly draw moisture out of the cheese. This moisture should be allowed to escape unless you are looking for a more pungent cheese. For this to happen, wrap in waxed parchment.
Round - Size: 8cm diameter - Weight: approx. 170g
Serve with Semillon-Sauvignon Blanc or dessert wines, depending on the age of the cheese, or Burra Brewery pale ale.

Vegetarian Rennet
Indulgence is a matured farmhouse-style cheese with a natural rind. A slow-make technique develops a fine, close texture with a creamy, luscious fudgey mouth feel that melts in the mouth. The centre has some firmness than gradually becomes soft and sticky towards the rind. The body is covered in a wrinkled, bloomy Geotrichum rind. Dairy & mineral flavours are a balance between sweet and sour, and a lasting spice on the palate. The earthy aroma is of the farm, reflecting the 100% pasture-fed organic diet of our single herd of mixed breed cows, grazed along Lance creek on our family farm in South Gippsland.
Indulgence can be enjoyed at any stage, from fresh & creamy (14 days), semi-matured like a ripe fig (3-4 weeks) or aged (2-3 months), when it develops a waxy-smooth, drier texture with concentrated flavours and a peppery finish.
Indulgence has amazing characteristics, controlled by the natural rind flora, which slowly draw moisture out of the cheese. This moisture should be allowed to escape unless you are looking for a more pungent cheese. For this to happen, wrap in waxed parchment.
Serve with fruit and Semillon-Sauvignon Blanc or dessert wines, depending on the age of the cheese, or an American-style pale ale.

Inspiration - Cow milk

Toss in salads or pasta, or spread on crusty bread.
