Alba Cheese Co has something to smile about – and it’s not just the rich, creamy taste of its award-winning cheese.
The family-run business has scooped an impressive nine medals at the prestigious Royal Queensland Dairy Awards, cementing its place as one of Australia’s most celebrated cheese producers.
The tally includes four gold, four silver, and one bronze, a haul that reflects decades of dedication, tradition, and innovation.
Judged by leading dairy experts and industry connoisseurs, the awards highlight excellence in flavour, texture, and technique – all qualities that Alba Cheese Co said are at the heart of every wheel it produces.
“This award is more than a recognition – it’s a reflection of our dedication to traditional cheese-making, sustainable sourcing, and bold flavour,” national marketing manager Margaret McLelland said.
“In an industry filled with remarkable talent, standing out is an achievement we don’t take lightly. It inspires us to continue pushing boundaries while honouring the art of cheese.
“Our cheese tells a story.
“It’s about the land, our people, and our passion for crafting something truly special.”
