The Alexandrina Cheese Company is located at Mount Jagged in the heart of the Fleurieu Peninsula where the McCaul Family have been breeding their much loved Jersey cows since 1973. In 2001, they opened a purpose built factory where, as third generation cheese makers, they began manufacturing premium quality cheeses. They specialise in handmade cheeses using traditional methods. This black waxed cheddar is made in an open vat and matured in cloth. The Jersey milk gives a golden colour and a rich aroma and flavour profile, which intensifies with age. The cheese has a strong barnyard flavour and aroma with the sharpness expected from a well aged traditional cheddar.
