Founded in the early 1900’s King Island Dairy are producers of award winning and world class speciality cheese and dairy products. Amongst their most popular products are soft white, blue vein, washed rind and cheddar cheese. Guarding the stormy western entrance to Bass Strait is a lonely, rugged island. Situated at 144ᵒ longitude and 40ᵒ 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 to create some of the finest cheeses on earth.
