Take a guided tour of Oamaru's Whitestone Cheese Co., and learn the cheese making process across a range of specialities. Taste some of the cheeses on offer perfectly paired with boutique wines.
Founded in 1987, Whitestone Cheese Co. is home to a rich history of local cheese making. The original factory was set up in Oamaru during the rural downturn of the era and a series of crippling droughts. Whitestone Farmhouse was launched originally in a converted garage and using milk sourced from local farms, and growing now to employ over 50 people with a factory, deli and shop.
During this guided tour of the viewing galleries, you will learn the history of Whitestone Cheese Co., and the cheese making process.
Then, enjoy a cheese tasting with paired wines to sample to delicate flavours of the cheeses with three tasting sized glasses of boutique wine matched to your samples.
You'll also receive a goodie bag to take home.
No high heels or stiletto shoes to be worn.
Please note tour timings are not flexible. Tours are available at 10am Mon-Fri to ensure you have the best chance at seeing the cheesemakers at work.

That’s 10% of the Australian population! When we started ‘doing’ experiences in 2001, Facebook didn’t exist; the iPod had just been invented; John Howard was Prime Minister; and Destiny's Child were popular (yikes!). We’ve been at this business of experiences for quite a while, so put your trust in us to show you a good time.
