Code: WC0290
A complex and subtle blue, with an overarching sweetness from the purity of our ewe’s milk. Behind a natural rind is an ivory paste marbled with greenish-blue veins. On the palate there are yeasty, champignon, spicy and slightly smokey flavours. It is aged for three month and is at peak maturity at six months, where it has a wonderful combination of a luscious mouth-feel, earthy spiciness and hints of mixed peel and honeysuckle. The optimum period for making our blue is Autumn, where the milk has slight earthy notes and is highly concentrated, resulting in a wonderfully creamy, multi-layered cheese.

Handcrafted Ewes Milk Cheese
Pecora Dairy is an artisan sheep milk dairy and cheesery founded in 2011 by Michael and Cressida Cains. The farm is 200 acres and is situated in Robertson, the Green Heart of the Southern Highlands.
It’s here that the ewe’s graze lush pasture and drink from crystal clear running creeks to produce rich creamy milk which is made into seasonal ewe’s milk cheeses.
The overarching philosophy of Pecora Dairy is one of a gentleness on the land, toward our ewe’s and in the production of our cheese. This light handed approach intertwines throughout all aspects of farming and cheese making, resulting in benchmark ewe’s milk cheese, characterised by time and place.
In 2018 Pecora Dairy became the first cheesery in Australia licensed to make a raw milk cheese with no heat treatment. Yarrawa, is a true reflection of the seasonal nature of the milk and the farms entire ecosystem.
