TASMANIA, AUSTRALIA
 

PREMIUM NATURAL CHEESE

King Island is a tiny speck in the Great Southern Ocean, situated south of Melbourne at the Western end of Bass Strait, the strait between mainland Australia and Tasmania. King Island is a haven - pollution and chemical free. 
The quality of the pasture and clean environment, combined with a year round growing season, enables the dairy farmers on King Island to practice traditional methods. There is no need for the feed supplements that others must rely on. 
The cows of King Island are reputed to produce the sweetest milk in the land and from this milk comes a range of dairy products acknowledged throughout Australia and rapidly earning the same sort of reputation in the international marketplace. All King Island Dairy products are made on the Island using fresh King Island milk collected daily from 23 farms.
