25.01.2022 I have something special! This is a rare and absolutely-blow-my-mind-delicious goat cheese from Barossa Cheese. Im lucky to be the ONLY ONE stocking this in all Victoria. This La Dame, a semi-hard goat cheese has been aged for FOUR years and its totally worth the wait. It becomes even more complex in flavour - nutty with a sweet finish, the texture is flaky and just melts on your tongue. I currently only have 1 wheel available. You can either order in store or on our onli...ne shop - https://www.ripecheese.com.au//la-dame-4-year-aged-goat-ch Dont miss out!

22.01.2022 Join us in celebrating #rawcheeseday with @oldwayscheese and increase awareness of the benefits of natural fermented foods. Why choose raw milk cheeses and cele...brate them? They usually have broad, complex flavours, and respect milks origin by keeping natural milk flora alive during the cheesemaking period. For the Environment, producers of raw-milk and artisan cheeses tend to produce in a smaller scale, aiming to use practices that are less damaging to our shared ecosystems. Today is the 6th Annual International Raw Milk Cheese Appreciation Day Find out more on www.oldwayspt.org/rawcheeseday #moyarrareserve #promcountrycheese #rawmilkcheese #rawmilkrevolution

20.01.2022 2nd day of Buffalo cheese appreciation comes from Berrys Creek Gourmet Cheese. Their traditional style brie is made from the extremely rich buffalo milk giving the cheese a creamy and buttery finish. Have you ever tried a buffalo Brie before?

20.01.2022 It’s a cheese toastie kinda day today in Melbourne.

20.01.2022 We’re continuing our raw milk cheese appreciation with the addition of Raw Milk c2 from Bruny Island Cheese to the shop! It is the sort of cheese found throughout the mountains of France and northern Italy, but made in Tasmania. A classic cooked curd cheese made in traditional wooden hoops. C2 matures for 6 - 12 months, during which time it develops a sweet aroma and a mildly nutty flavour. The rind is wiped every week to encourage the surface bacteria that provide this chee...se with much of its robust integrity. Bruny Island Cheese Co. was started by Nick Haddow after he spent 10 years working with specialist cheese makers in many different countries around the world. He and his partner Leonie settled on Bruny Island in Southern Tasmania in 2001 to start making cheese for themselves. Nick is a traditionalist, who recognises that great cheese was made for centuries before modern technology played a role and believes passionately in the old way of making and maturing cheese. For him, cheese making is a pursuit of integrity and flavour. (Source: brunyislandcheese.com.au) Fun fact: this is the first ever raw milk cheese to be made in Australia. It has also been voted many times as one of the best cheese this country has offer.

10.01.2022 This is how I love to enjoy LArtisan Cheese Extravagant (triple cream) - creamy on the outside, but slightly chalky in the center.

Its one of favourite cheese from BoatShed Cheese and will be available for tasting on our next CHEESE TALKS. Make sure you book fast because spots are very limited!

07.01.2022 One of the most interesting out there is the Buffalo Tempest from BoatShed Cheese in the Mornington Peninsula. It has light fresh flavours when young and a texture like a French chevre. As it ages, this cheese becomes very rich and strong and the mousse style curd changes to a ripe oozy brie texture. Ash is added to the cheese to slow down aging and help the rind form. If this makes your mouth salivate, sign up for our next CHEESE TALKS via this link: www.ripecheese.com.au/...cheese-talks : Boatshed Cheese

05.01.2022 NEW CHEESE Say hello to the Aged Moonshine by Jack Holman from Stone and Crow Cheese Company. Aged for 2-3 years, the rind dries out, the texture firms and crystals can appear. There is a depth of flavour with sweetness and nuttiness that I fell for when I first tasted it. The one I received just celebrated its 2nd birthday. ... Super amazing cheese by an impressive cheesemaker. We cant wait to bring you his Night Walker washed rind (my mouth is watering just thinking about it).
