About

Cartwheel Creamery produced a diverse range of artisan cheeses, primarily from local cow's and goat's milk, including soft white mould, washed rinds, feta, halloumi, semi-hard, and blue cheeses. Founded in 2011 by former scientists Adrian and Jill Walcroft in the picturesque Pohangina Valley, they focused on high-quality milk and traditional methods. Their craft combined scientific precision with an appreciation for terroir, resulting in unique, award-winning cheeses like 'Opiki Ma' and 'Blue Rhapsody'.

Full backstory to be enriched from social media, market directories, and interviews.
