King Island Dairies

Description

Founded in the early 1900's King Island Dairy are producers of award winning and world-class speciality cheese and dairy products. Amongst our most popular products are soft white, blue vein, washed rind and cheddar cheese.
Guarding the stormy western entrance to the Bass Strait is a lonely, rugged island. Situated at 144? longitude and 40? latitude, this isolated place is cut off from the rest of the world by jagged reefs, raging seas and howling Roaring Forties winds. With mineral rich soils, cool annual temperatures, abundant rainfall and a consistent salt spray thanks to the constant westerly winds, the environment contributes to quality milk production which helps us create some of the finest cheeses on earth.
If visiting King Island, make sure you stop by the King Island Dairy cheese store. We have our award winning range available for tasting and purchase. Our friendly staff are always ready to answer any questions you might have about our types of cheese and how King Island cheese is made. We serve a cheese platter of the day featuring Tasmanian produce as well a selection of hot and cold drinks including craft beer and Tasmanian wine.
