Merino sheep were originally developed in Spain and highly prized for their fine wool. The first Merino sheep were introduced to Australia in 1797 deriving from the Royal Merino Flocks of Spain.

These Spanish sheep had already evolved a fine fiber but more selective breeding from farmers in Australia made sheep adapt to the specific conditions of the country. This led to the even finer wool that is prized today. There are four main types of Merino wool that exist in Australia. These include superfine Merino (which is 18-micron fiber diameter or less), fine wool Merino (which is 19-micron fiber diameter), medium wool Merino (which is 20-22 micron fiber diameter), and strong wool Merino (which is 23-25 micron fiber diameter).

Generally, sheep with finer wool do best in cooler areas while sheep with stronger wool do better in low rainfall areas that are hot. Merino wool is constantly developing because of selective breeding and will continue to do so. We are using 19 Micron merino wool.
