Creamy, smooth and soft, with a mild blue ﬂavour and rich full cream ﬁnish. When served at room temperature it can melt in your mouth.

A premium high cream blue cheese. Moeraki Bay Blue is a smaller log with shorter maturation than it’s stable mate Windsor Blue, producing a slightly ﬁrmer texture and a milder ﬂavor with a rich full cream ﬁnish. It is a delicate blue to contrast our richer stronger styles.

It is made using the same recipe and mold as our ﬂagship Windsor Blue. While the Windsor Blue is made in an approximately 3.6kg round and aged for at least eight weeks,our Moeraki Bay Blue is much smaller at approximately 1kg and younger as it is matured for around four weeks.

The cheese is named after the tranquil little ﬁshing village of Moeraki, located 25 minutes south of Oamaru, and home to the world renowned Moeraki Boulders. Bob used to farm the great afﬁnity with this bay. When it came to naming the Windsor Blue stablemate Moeraki Bay was the ﬁrst choice.

Match with...

Medium-bodied red wine such as a cab merlot, Pale Ale, smooth lager.
Serve at room temperature with plain crackers, crusty bread, and sweet chutneys. Lovely as a steak or pizza topping.
