Fonterra Oceania’s Kapiti cheese, an internationally acclaimed and multi-award-winning cheese, has officially launched in ALDI stores across Australia for a limited time.
Crafted at Fonterra’s Bridge Street site in Eltham, New Zealand, Kapiti is renowned for its premium quality, artisanal expertise and as New Zealand’s most awarded cheese brand.
"We’re excited to bring Kapiti’s bold flavours to Australian tables this Christmas,” says Cathy Lang, Kapiti’s award-winning cheesemaker. "Each cheese has been handpicked to delight cheese lovers this holiday season.”
The exclusive ALDI range features three standout varieties, including the award-winning Kikorangi Blue, crowned 2023 Reserve Supreme Champion at the International Cheese Awards in the United Kingdom, one of the largest dairy competitions in the world.
"For entertainers, the Kikorangi Blue will lift your cheese game with its creamy texture and bold, tangy taste,” Cathy adds. Also available are the rich Pakari Aged Cheddar and Kanuka Havarti Smoked, perfect for elevating festive cheeseboards.
Kapiti is one of Fonterra Oceania’s hero brands in New Zealand and following the formation of Fonterra Oceania earlier this year, the business is leveraging the strength of its brands from both sides of the Tasman to test, grow and expand into new markets.
The arrival of Kapiti cheese in ALDI is part of Fonterra Oceania’s strategy to showcase the best of Australian and New Zealand dairy on the global stage.
Kapiti cheese is now available at Australian Aldi stores nationwide for a limited time.
