our cheese
Soft and fresh, aged and stinky, we love them all. The ancient tradition of making cheese is such a humble and wonderful way of preserving the goodness of milk. All our cheeses are made with 100% goats milk.
CHEVRE
A fresh soft goat’s milk cheese. This is a very versatile cheese. It has a fresh, clean taste and a creamy texture. Our chevre roulade with garlic and garden herbs is a favourite among guests.
FETA
Goat’s milk brings a unique flavour and aroma to this popular style of cheese. This salty, creamy cheese is perfect for salads, on pizzas and in quiches. Our feta was awarded 3rd place at the 2020 SA Dairy Championships.
VLIEDERMAUS
This special cheese was lovingly named after our beloved Staffordshire terrier. It is a rich, soft, ashed, surface ripened cheese. The perfect addition to an exquisite cheese platter. Vliedermaus was awarded SA Champion at the SA Dairy Championships in 2018 & 2019 and received 2nd place in 2020.
CAMEMBERT
Another well known and classic cheese. Our camembert has a rich, buttery yet milky taste. During the 2019 and 2020 SA Dairy Championships, our camembert was awarded 2nd and 3rd place.
BRIE
A classic and well known favourite, prepared traditionally. It has a rich, earthy, nutty taste and oozy texture. Hero it on its own, serve it with onion marmalade or add it to your favourite pizza! At the 2020 SA Dairy Championships our brie was awarded 2nd place.
KNOPPIES
Sister to the Vliedermaus, Knoppies was named after a favourite goat and is just as quirky and exciting as the goat herself. It is formed by hand into a button shape and grows a beautiful bloomy rind during aging. When aged, it is strong, earthy and robust. Knoppies was awarded 2nd place at the 2018 SA Dairy Championships.
Baris Tomme
A semi-hard, very tasty cheese with a natural rind. Perfect for cheese platters, gourmet burgers, toasties, pizzas...name it. True to its artisan nature each wheel has a unique flavour. Spices, like cumin, are also added to some of the wheels to give it just that extra special taste.
HALLOUMI
Made in the traditional style of folding and adding dried mint; harvested from our own gardens. This is a real crowd pleaser. Grill it in a pan with butter or on the open fire, serve with freshly squeezed lemon juice. Use it as a snack, starter or as a meal in a salad. Our Halloumi with mint received 3rd place at the 2019 SA Dairy Championships.
SKALLIEMARIE
The skalliemarie is our “new to the crew” mixed milk cheese, named after another beloved Staffordshire Terrier. To meet demand during our off season and in times when our goats’ production lessened we started experimenting with a mixed milk cheese made in the same style as the Vliedermaus. The results impressed us and the judges at the 2020 SA Dairy Championships where Skalliemarie was awarded 2nd place.
