We welcome back @s28cheeses Mont Priscilla a semi-hard cows milk cheese made in the Adelaide Hills by cheesemaker Kym Masters’ and inspired by his time in the Haut Jura region of France. Mont Priscilla has a soft buttery yellow-ivory paste, yeasty aroma and a vibrant flavour with a hint of citrus. Where does the name Mont Priscilla come from? Kym married the girl on the farm next door to where he grew up and Mt Priscilla is the little hill between the two family farms in SA.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

One of the best things about being a cheesemonger is the moment when you open a new wheel of any cheese to reveal the treasure inside. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What flavours, textures and aromas await? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What was happening on the day that the cheese was made? Grass/ dry feed, weather (wet/dry/cold/hot) or worldwide events. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Every day is and adventure. Every wheel tells a story. I love what I do so much.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Thursday’s are Perfect for Pairing! We’re staying in the Adelaide Hills for this one - with a nod and a wink to Italy! The cheese is @s28cheeses Monte Rosso which is made in style of a classic Taleggio. The wine is the @theotherwineco Pinot Gris. A textural and deliciously drinkable fruit driven white. Combine the two and the magic happens.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

#cheeseoftheday s28cheeses Fontina Vecchio a hard raw milk cheese made inspired by the Alpine cheese of Northern Italy's Valle d'Aosta. Suitably named ‘Vecchio’, Italian for ‘old’, it has been matured for 12 months. The resulting cheese is highly aromatic while the straw-yellow interior is smooth with small holes dotted throughout. The initial flavour is full of sweet tropical fruit, with a delightfully rich, buttery finish.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Three years ago, @mouldcheese was established to celebrate and champion the best of Australian cheese and I have to say, it’s one of the many @revel.global I’m most proud of.
But it was never just about cheese, it was a collective of like minded souls and businesses coming together in collaboration, and not competition. From cheese mongers to wine, whisky, sake, beer, cider ... all.
Whilst our festival gatherings may be on temporary hold, our commitment to the cause has not wavered.
As we head into the long weekend, regional areas are gearing up for a big one so please, go see your favourite makers and BUY DIRECT.
That is always the best way to support farmers.
That may sound counterintuitive for someone who just launched the @mouldcheese collective (!), but it’s what I’ve always championed.
When on route, have a listen to these podcasts and get the story behind the cheese.
Doing this has reminded me of just how good Australian cheese is.
Truly something to celebrate.
We have many more stories to tell and I can’t wait to share them with you.

s28 Position Description – Head Cheesemaker 202004
Section28 Homestead Currently, alongside “why Alpine cheeses” , this is the most commonly asked question of ...
Currently, alongside “why Alpine cheeses” , this is the most commonly asked question of our small enterprise. Whilst certainly a valid question, it is usually followed with a guess along the lines of: “is it a reference to some piece of legislation?”.
Nothing nearly so clever, I am afraid. Rather, the name Section28 is a nod to our original family farm.
A Section is a historical legacy in South Australia, left by the surveying structure used in founding the colony. Under the founding scheme, land was divided up and sold to pay for the passage of selected settlers. The simplest method for the systematic survey of new areas was found to be dividing the land into Counties, then Hundreds (usually 100 square miles) and then into sections.
Thus, Section 28 in the Hundred of Roberts is 1,800 acres in the middle of South Australia’s ‘wheat and sheep’ country. There are not many dairies in the area and, with less than 400mm of annual rainfall and an altitude in the tens of metres rather than the 1,000s of metres, it is a long way removed from the Alpine pastures of Eastern France.
However, while growing up, we ran a few house cows (all named, as was the fashion, after a garden flower – Daisy, Dandelion, Rose…) for milk, cream and butter. And it was on the farm where, in what seems like an eternity ago, the seeds for this adventure were sown.
What other questions do you have?
“If we want to make meaning, we need to make art” - Brené Brown. Eleven words that caused ...
“If we want to make meaning, we need to make art” – Brené Brown.
Eleven words that caused a pause in an otherwise busy day. The surprise was that this pause then formed the kernel of a thought that, in turn, developed into an idea, which has now grown into Section28 Farmstead Cheeses.
Making art in the form of Artisan Cheese is possibly not the result that you might expect from a moment of reflection, but this has been our inspiration to step out of our comfortable existence and try something new.
We are passionate about creating products of the highest possible quality. We are inspired by true Master Craftsmen – people that spend a lifetime perfecting their art, referencing time-honoured traditions but making their own improvements, and measuring their success in the joy on a customer’s face.
And so, we are setting out to emulate this tradition. Section28 Artisan Cheeses will produce hand-made Alpine Cheeses that capture the very essence of the Adelaide Hills. We are captivated by the mixture of science and technical skill, combined with pure artistry that has been the source of the world’s great cheeses. Our aim is to create unique Australian cheeses that reference their European heritage and cheesemaking traditions but have a style and flavour which is distinctly their own.
Over the past 18 months we have worked to put the foundations for this venture in place, and today we begin the process of building the business. Over the next few months we will build and equip the production facility, test our production processes, develop our signature cheeses, launch our brand and begin selling. It all seems quite simple when captured in a brief sentence, but marginally daunting if thought about for too long!
Wiser people than us have said that the joy is in the journey rather than the destination. With this in mind, we would like to invite you to join us as we embark upon this journey to make art. We promise it will be exhilarating.

“I trust a good deal to common fame, as we all must. If a man has good corn, or wood, or boards,
or pigs to sell, or can make better chairs or knives, crucibles or church organs than anybody else,
you will find a broad hard-beaten road to his house, though it be in the woods.”
An extract from Ralph Waldo Emerson’s journal, 1855
Section28 Artisan Cheeses is a small business dedicated to achieving absolute excellence in our raw materials,
in our production and in all of our cheese. Inspired by Ralph Waldo Emerson, we aim to become known as a leading Australian artisan
producer of hard and semi-hard Alpine cheeses that quintessentially capture the essence of our local environment.
Our passion is hand-making uniquely Australian cheeses using the classic traditions of European cheesemakers and
the very best milk from the Adelaide Hills. We are inspired by the relentless search for perfection of the Master Cheesemaker,
the artistry required to hand-craft a great product and the history that is embedded in each cheese that is made.
We are excited to be on this adventure and welcome you to join us.
