King Island Dairy Roaring Forties Blue
This item is currently unavailable.
Named for the blustering, westerly winds that blow across King Island, Australia, where this cheese is made, Roaring Forties Blue is a flavorful cow’s milk cheese. The rindless wheels mature in black wax, which keeps them moist and ensures a smooth, creamy texture. The flavor profile—sweet, grassy, and nutty—benefits from the uniquely rich, sweet milk that results from the cows’ year-round consumption of the island’s verdant and salty pastures. A buttery port will complement this blue’s complexity.
Unless noted otherwise, Murray's cheeses sold by the lb ship in multiple 0.5 lb increments. To request a whole wheel, please contact the Murray's team at orders@murrayscheese.com at least 72 hours prior to your desired ship date.
