Roaring Forties Blue

Roaring Forties Blue is an Australian cheese produced by King Island Dairy from King Island. The cheese is made from pasteurized cow's milk and it's named after the Roaring 40's winds that whip around the island at more than 100km per hour.

This blue cheese has a waxed rind, and underneath it the texture is smooth and creamy. The aromas are rich, while the flavors are sweet, nutty, and fruity, with a great aftertaste. It's recommended to serve the cheese with muscatel grapes, fig paste, pecan nuts, fresh pears, or a crusty baguette.

Roaring Forties Blue can also be added to pasta dishes, salads, and pizzas. Interestingly, the cheese was awarded Grand Champion Blue Cheese at the Australian Grand Dairy Awards in 2019.
