AWARD WINS FOR CHEESE IN 2023

Cheese Shows and Awards.

As we kick off the cheese show season, we look back at the accolades collected in 2023. We are proud to be making cheddar that has won more taste awards than any other. Over 160 years of family cheese making expertise goes into every single maturing box and each year we offer our cheese to experienced judges to make sure we are still getting it right.

In 2023, we were awarded great results from a variety of award shows. These include the Virtual Cheese Awards, Devon County Show, International Cheese and Dairy Awards, Mid Somerset Show, Global Cheese Awards and World Cheese Awards. We are delighted to have achieved each and every result for our cheese entries and in this blog, we will be proudly showcasing our top results.
