• Tarago River Goats Cheese (Neerim South, Gippsland)
  A deliciously fresh cheese with a delicate sweetness that is balanced by its gentle acidity

  
  

• Jindi Triple Cream Brie  (Jindivick, Gippsland)
  Is a rich and buttery brie-style cheese. Encased in fluffy white mould the Triple Cream develops into a mature dessert cheese with a smooth creamy texture, a rich buttery mouth feel and slightly nutty flavour
  
  

• Shadows of Blue (Neerim South, Gippsland)

  Made using cream-enriched whole milk, this rich, luscious cheese has a soft, creamy texture and distinctive, mild, sweet blue mould flavour

  
  

• Maffra Vintage Tasty (Maffra, Gippsland)

  Maffra Vintage Cheddar exhibits the classic cheddar flavour profile: sweet and rich up front notes with complex after tones. The texture is moist, and slightly crumbly
