Night Walker
Night Walker is a washed rind, cow’s milk cheese. It is a luxurious, creamy cheese that becomes deliciously gooey when aged to perfection. Night Walker has hints of mushroom and hay coming to the fore when the cheese is enjoyed at room temperature. The luscious flavours and texture are due to the meticulous daily washing method that creates the perfect microbial balance.
Jack says, ‘Night Walker got its name from a group of mates I go walking with. Once each season, we get together and head out into the bush on a night walk, under the full moon. On one night walk I pulled out a new cheese I'd been working on, and the guys loved it. The cheese got named Night Walker on the spot and it now makes an appearance on every night walk... it’s a great cheese to share with your mates.’
