World Cheese Awards Single Out Two US States as World Beaters

The World Cheese Awards announced this year’s winners earlier this month, highlighting two American-made products among the list of honorees.
Some 4,800 cheeses from around the world were assessed by a panel of 240 judges at this year’s awards, held in Viseu, Portugal. While top spots primarily went to those produced in Europe, two American makers beat out thousands of others to land gold medals at the annual competition.
Tillamook County Creamery Association was handed the title of best cheddar cheese, its 2014 Extra Sharp White Cheddar storming home with the lion’s share of the vote, according to Food & Wine. The 10-year-aged cheese is part of Oregon-based Tillamook’s Maker’s Reserve program, which specializes in 10-year vintages, released annually, alongside a range of cheddars aged for a minimum of three years.
