Guarding the stormy western entrance to Bass Straight is an island like no other. Where lashing winds wash grass with salt. Where cows graze on lush pastures borne from abundant rainfall to produce sweet, unusually rich milk. Never more than 2 hours from farm to dairy, where our cheeses are carefully handcrafted for a truly unique experience.
Our range extends across many cheese styles; from our creamy white moulds,
like our decadent King Island Dairy Furneaux; or our range of cheddars, like our robust King Island Stokes Point Smoked Cheddar; and through to our award winning Blues, like our 2019 Grand Dairy Champion King Island Roaring Forties Blue Cheese.
King Island Dairy. No ordinary Island. No ordinary Cheese.
