The judging panel awarded gold to Davidstow 3-Year Special Reserve in the Vintage Cheddar Cheese category and Cathedral City Mild in the Mild Cheddar Cheese category, while Davidstow Classic Mature and Cathedral City Mature Lighter picked up silver awards in the Mature Cheddar Cheese Block category and Lighter Cheese category respectively.
Marks & Spencer’s Single Pouring Cream and Madagascan Vanilla Cream, both made by Dairy Crest at its Chard Creamery, also received golds at the awards.
Dairy Crest has enjoyed a long reign of success at the awards, picking up the Danisco trophy 11 times in the last 13 years. The trophy is awarded for the most points won across all cheese shows in one season.
“For our Dairy Crest cheeses to be recognised at the prestigious International Cheese Awards is a real testament to all the hard work that goes into our cheese making,” said master cheese grader Mark Pitts-Tucker. “We could not be more pleased or more proud that two of our cheeses have won gold awards this year. We look forward to returning to the ICAs next year to continue our success.”
