Mungalli Creek Biodynamic Italian Herb Cheese: A Savoury Slice of Italy, Naturally Crafted
Treat your palate to the bold, aromatic notes of Mungalli Creek Biodynamic Italian Herb Cheese – a handcrafted delight made with love and integrity on the lush biodynamic farms of the Atherton Tablelands. Made from rich, unhomogenised full cream cow’s milk sourced from contented Jersey and Swiss Brown cows, this cheese offers a flavour experience that’s both complex and authentic.
Infused with a fragrant blend of traditional Italian herbs, including oregano, basil, and thyme, each bite delivers a savoury burst of Mediterranean charm. The cheese is aged slowly to develop its firm texture and mature flavour, allowing the natural creaminess of the biodynamic milk to shine through. Mungalli Creek’s holistic farming practices respect both the animals and the land, resulting in a product that’s better for you – and the planet.
Unlike many processed cheeses, this Italian herb variety contains no artificial additives, preservatives, or colourings. It is ACO Certified Organic and made using non-animal rennet, making it suitable for vegetarians. The milk used is unhomogenised, allowing the cream to rise naturally and preserve its traditional texture and nutritional integrity.
