Where are we?

Matatoki Farm Cheese

We are a local cheese maker making farmhouse cheeses. We are situated 12 kilometres from Thames, on the Coromandel Peninsula, New Zealand.
 
You will be able to taste the difference of the fresh products made direct from the farm. After many years of operation, the variation of cheeses produced has grown to around 20. From different times in the season there becomes some unique flavours, such as the Golden Gouda, with its creamy, slightly sour taste and the varying creaminess of the Coromandel Blue. The all year round production of soft cheeses like traditional brie, feta, fresh mozzarella and famous greek yoghurt, slows over the winter season as milk supply decreases.

Try sheep (ewes milk) cheeses, these are a great alternative for allergy sufferers, easily digested, very high in protein and low in cholesterol with a unique delicate flavour.

All soft cheeses and some of the semi hard cheeses are made with vegetable rennet, which is good news for vegetarians.
 
Our products are made from fresh whole milk, without preservatives or additives. We are committed to sustainable and natural practices based on organic/biodynamic farming with our aim being to is to supply a healthy traditional natural food that is affordable and a joy to eat.
