About
Founded by Genaro Velasquez and Rosselyn Escalante, La Cantara produces premium artisan cheeses inspired by their Venezuelan heritage, crafted with care on the Northwest Coast of Tasmania.
Operating a 29-hectare robotic dairy farm on the edge of Smithton, the team milks a herd of mixed-breed cows with an emphasis on sustainable practices and animal welfare. Made using 100% Tasmanian milk, their range of artisan European and Venezuelan-style cheeses and milk can be ordered directly through their online shop.
