"Back in France I used Agnue de Pauillac and Mouton de Pre-Sale... Cardrona Merino Lamb has great flavour and fantastic texture... simply the best lamb in NZ... maybe in the world.."

About us
About us
|
 |
|
Nestled in the unspoiled ranges of New Zealand’s Central Otago, lies Cardrona and its surrounding valleys. Farmed through the generations, these valleys are the home of a distinctive award winning natural product, Cardrona Merino mountain bred lamb. |
|
In their origins on the high country of the majestic Southern Alps, the lambs roam freely throughout the land, grazing extensively on herbs and native grasses. This free-range lifestyle creates a lean, tender meat with a beautifully refined flavour. |
|
The farmers goal is to provide the most sustainable, high quality lamb in the country. |
|
|
|
Our mission is to provide our customers with mountain bred merino lamb that we as farmers enjoy as our first choice.
