GORGONZOLA DOP ON TOP OF THE WORLD AT WORLD CHEESE AWARDS

Gorgonzola Pdo is among the world’s best cheeses. This award was decreed by the 250 judges from 38 countries at the latest edition of the World Cheese Awards 2022, the world’s most crucial cheese competition that was supposed to be held in Kyiv, but due to the war conflict was organized in Newport, Wales, last November.

4424 kinds of cheese were competing from 42 countries with 900 participating companies. The products were ranked in four categories (Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Super Gold), and Gorgonzola Pdo received 4 Bronze, 4 Silver, 2 Gold, and one Super Gold.

International experts-cheesemakers, chefs, industry professionals, and retailers evaluated the appearance of the cheese paste, aroma, body, texture, flavor, palate sensation, and crust appearance.

The date for this year’s World Cheese Awards will be in Trondheim, Norway.
