It starts here, with the herd. Our buffalo graze the Clevedon pastures and produce the rich, creamy milk that gives our cheeses and yoghurts their distinctive flavour, texture and character.

Good food begins with good milk, and good milk begins with well-cared-for animals.

These lamb and buffalo feta meatballs are wet weather comfort food done properly. Tender, juicy and packed with flavour, with buffalo yoghurt and fresh breadcrumbs keeping them beautifully soft, and little bursts of creamy, rich buffalo feta in every bite. Finished with lemon, oregano and a fresh tomato sauce, they’re made for piling onto the plate and sharing.

A stunning creation from Rob Hope-Ede - white chocolate ganache alongside roasted strawberries, strawberry yoghurt sorbet, cardamom syrup and beautifully crafted ghevar.

We love seeing our buffalo products used with this level of creativity and precision. Such a thoughtful combination of flavour, texture and technique.

Clevedon Buffalo Ricotta gnocchi with pine-needle-infused honey and shaved truffle. Refined, thoughtful and absolutely divine.

Absolutely brilliant to see Rocco and the team at Napoli Contemporanea receiving such a glowing review from Jesse Mulligan in V I V A.

Their passion, skill and uncompromising commitment to quality shine through in every pizza, and we’re incredibly proud to see our buffalo cheese used in such exceptional hands. Top 50 in Asia and now another rave review here at home. Thoroughly deserved.

Congratulations, Rocco and team. What an achievement.
