Fior di Latte (Fresh Cow Mozzarella)
Flower of Milk — Made Fresh on Vancouver Island

Inspired by the Italian tradition and crafted with Canadian care, our Fior di Latte takes its name from the Italian word fior, meaning “flower” — a nod to its delicate, blossoming flavour and silky texture. Made fresh every week at our Courtenay cheese factory, this is true handcrafted mozzarella, shaped by local milk and artisan skill.

Fior di Latte is known for its elegant simplicity:
– A tender, yielding bite
– Soft, creamy texture
– A rich, milky sweetness that fills the palate
– A subtle tang that adds balance and depth

Fresh, pure, and beautifully versatile, this cheese embodies the essence of authentic Italian mozzarella — but with the character of Vancouver Island milk behind it.

Why It Stands Apart:
• Made weekly on Tuesday mornings usually for peak freshness
• Crafted from high-quality Canadian cow’s milk
• No shortcuts — just traditional methods and careful hands
• Perfectly mild, so every pairing shines

Serving & Pairing:
Slice it on fresh tomatoes with basil and olive oil, tear it over pizza just out of the oven, or scatter it onto a grazing board with stone fruit and prosciutto.
This cheese pairs confidently with Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot, or crisp white wines that let its gentle flavour lead.

Fior di Latte is the simple beauty of milk transformed —
fresh, honest, and ready to inspire your table.

Comox Brie
The Canadian Brie That Beat the French — Born of Vancouver Island Terroir

Our award-winning Comox Brie is more than a celebrated cheese — it’s a testament to the character of Vancouver Island itself. In international competition, it claimed victory over traditional French Bries, proving that excellence doesn’t need to cross an ocean…it can be inspired by one.

Crafted in the heart of the Comox Valley, this Brie is shaped by the unique terroir of our region — where lush pastures meet fresh ocean air, and the rhythm of tides influences the landscape that sustains our herds. The result? Milk with a natural sweetness, minerality, and depth that translate into cheese with extraordinary nuance.

Comox Brie embodies the classic elegance of a bloomy rind cheese:
– A soft, snowy rind
– A gentle buttery aroma
– A luscious, creamy center that ripens to divine silkiness

Its flavour is subtle yet rich — delicate at first, with a hint of cultured butter, then evolving into light earthy and savoury tones that reflect the coastal environment where it was made.

This is a cheese rooted in place.
Refined by nature. Perfected by craftsmanship. Recognized on the world stage.

Taste the Brie that beat the French —
and the essence of Vancouver Island in every bite.

Comox Camembert
Rich. Rustic. Coastal by Nature.

Handcrafted on Vancouver Island, Comox Camembert captures the soul of traditional French-style cheese — elevated by the unique coastal terroir of the Comox Valley. Here, where fresh ocean breezes roll over green pastures, our local milk takes on a depth of character that distinguishes every wheel we make.

This Camembert is creamy, rich, and beautifully balanced, with a texture that softens from the outside in as it ripens. Its snowy white bloomy rind remains tender and inviting, giving way to a luscious interior that becomes increasingly spoonable with time.

The flavour is classic yet unmistakably ours:
– A delicate note of fresh mushroom
– Subtle earthiness inspired by the coastal air and fertile soils
– A buttery richness that lingers just long enough

Every bite reflects the harmony between nature and craft — from the ocean-kissed fields where our milk begins, to the careful affinage that brings the cheese to life.

Comox Camembert is perfect on a cheese board, gently warmed in the oven, or paired with crisp BC cider, a dry white wine, or artisan bread fresh from the oven.

Taste the essence of Vancouver Island —
wrapped in a bloom, softened by the sea.

Buffalo Brie
Elegant. Exotic. A Vancouver Island First.

An inspired evolution of our world-champion Comox Brie, Buffalo Brie showcases the extraordinary qualities of water buffalo milk — and the pioneering spirit of Vancouver Island cheesemaking. We are proud to say that Natural Pastures created the first water buffalo cheese in Canada, and this Brie is one of our most refined expressions of that craft.

Made with rich, silky milk from grass-fed, non-GMO water buffalo raised right here on Vancouver Island, this cheese reflects a commitment to purity, sustainability, and deeply local roots. The milk is naturally A2 protein, meaning many people find it easier to digest — and it contains more calcium, protein, and beneficial fats than cow’s milk.

These gentle, grazing animals thrive on coastal pasture, producing milk with unique richness that transforms this Brie into something extraordinary:

• A satin-smooth, creamy interior
• A luscious, slow-melting texture
• A refined, subtle sweetness with light earthy notes
• A pure white rind that slices beautifully

This is a cheese that feels luxurious, yet clean. Elegant, yet deeply comforting.
Whether enjoyed with fresh pears, sparkling wine, honeycomb, or artisanal breads, Buffalo Brie elevates every board and every occasion.

From local fields to world-class flavour —
taste the Brie born of Vancouver Island’s land, air, and pioneering spirit.
