Cheese market in Nieheim selects top-class cheeses
| Every two years, an expert jury and consumers meet at the German Cheese Market in Nieheim to select Germany’s best farm cheeses, this time at the beginning of September: 102 hand-made cheeses – some 60 % of them organic – from 44 cheese dairies faced the competition. Sensory experts, cheese traders and cheese producers tested the cheeses entered for appearance, consistency, smell and taste. Then it was the turn of the consumers to choose their favourite cheese. More than three-quarters of the cheese variations presented proved their first-class quality and received a quality or public award. For the first time, a challenge cup in gold, silver and bronze was presented to the three best cheeses tested. Three other cheeses received an Innovation Award, which went to two organic cheese producers and one conventional producer. |
