At Koala Cherries, we’re all about taste, and our brands bring that to life in every way. From our premium Elevation 600 range to our signature white label, each brand represents our heritage, our quality, and our love for what we grow.
Koala Celebrate
People love to give our cherries as gifts, so we thought we'd create something worth sharing. Similar to Koala white label, we only pack cherries with great flavour, texture and appearance, so you can be sure you're getting a box of our best. This box was designed for our online sales.
Elevation 600
These special cherries are grown in the Victorian Strathbogie Ranges at 600m above sea level. The cooler climate at this high elevation allows the cherries to ripen for longer on the tree developing the fullest possible flavour. Elevation 600 cherries are our best cherries, available for just a few weeks after Christmas.
Koala White Label
These cherries are our biggest seller, available the full season from November to January. We only pack cherries with great flavour, texture and appearance, which is why Koala Cherries White Label is regarded as the most trusted cherry brand in Australia.

A story spanning generations
In 1944, Reginald and Mary Rouget established a cherry, berry and stone fruit orchard in the Yarra Valley. A few years later, their sons John, Max and Brian left school early to join them on the farm. The business was then known as R.J. Rouget and Sons, a true family operation where everyone had a role.
As the years went on, John and Brian’s sons, Michael and Simon, grew up among the orchards, learning the craft from their fathers and grandparents. They developed a lifetime of horticultural knowledge and a deep passion for growing premium cherries.
Today, Michael and Simon proudly own and operate this third generation business, with the fourth generation of Rougets now stepping into the fold. Although the orchards have grown and evolved, the same family values, work ethic and love for great cherries remain at the heart of everything we do.
