GIPPSLAND Jersey, a dairy company based in Lakes Entrance, is celebrating a remarkable achievement after being crowned the best milk producer in Australia by the Dairy Industry Association of Australia (DIAA).
Gippsland Jersey co-founder, Sallie Jones expressed her excitement, stating, “We are thrilled to be recognised as not only the top milk in Victoria but also the best in the entire country!”
The award-winning product, Gippsland Jersey Full Cream milk, was lauded by the DIAA as the finest non-modified milk in Australia, a distinction the company proudly refers to as ‘real’ milk.
Ms Jones credited the dedicated farmers who work so hard to produce the exceptional raw milk, as well as its hardworking factory staff who put the milk into bottles.
In addition to the prestigious title, Gippsland Jersey’s Full Cream, Light, and Unhomogenised milk varieties, as well as their Golden Ghee, were awarded gold medals in the DIAA Product Competition.
The brand also received silver medals for their Cultured Sour cream and Unsalted Butter, further solidifying their reputation for excellence in dairy production.
As the backbone of many communities, the dairy industry plays a vital role in Gippsland, contributing nearly $3 billion dollars to the economy.
Gippsland Jersey is encouraging everyone to buy a bottle of milk and be the judge. Jersey milk is rich and creamy.
