Podcasts about world cheese awards

In 1998, brothers Mateo and Andy Kehler bought a piece of land in the Northeast Kingdom town of Greensboro that would become home to Jasper Hill Farm. Within a few years, the brothers were producing award-winning cheeses and had created an iconic Vermont brand. Among the numerous accolades received by Jasper Hill are Best American Cheese from the World Cheese Awards, gold medals from the International Cheese Awards and Best of Show from the American Cheese Society.Today, Jasper Hill, the largest employer in Greensboro with 85 employees, is confronting headwinds. Its lucrative Canadian markets have completely dried up. Canadians are boycotting American-made products in response to President Trump's tariffs and his threats to make Canada the 51st state. And Vermont's housing crisis is making it extremely difficult for Jasper Hill's employees to live and for the company to grow.The local housing crunch is so severe that Jasper Hill has bought 11 properties and is subsidizing rent so its employees can afford to live."The folks that are living in our houses can't find anywhere to live. There's nothing to buy and there's nothing to rent,” said Kehler.But despite the town's dire need for moderately priced housing, Greensboro residents recently voted down a plan to redevelop its derelict and underused town hall into affordable housing. As VTDigger has reported, the plan was for the nonprofit Northeast Kingdom housing agency RuralEdge to invest $10 million in rehabilitating the town hall and create up to 20 units of affordable housing.Greensboro, with about 800 year-round residents, is one of the wealthiest communities in Vermont. It has the highest rate of second home ownership in the state. In 2019, Greensboro's town plan and a housing needs assessment detailed Greensboro's “great need” for moderately-priced housing.Jasper Hill Farm co-founder Mateo Kehler described his neighbors' rejection of the affordable housing plan as “soul crushing.”I visited Jasper Hill Farm to talk with Kehler about cheese and the challenges confronting his renowned business. When I arrived, he was outside in large rubber boots washing out a milk truck. Kehler invited me inside for a walk around the creamery. We were soon standing among gleaming stainless steel pipes and large copper tanks. The air was thick with the distinctive sweet and sour smell of fermenting cheese.Kehler described what has happened to his Canadian sales. “We were expecting to sell nearly $1 million worth of cheese to Canada and Montreal, which is our closest metropolitan market and is the best cheese market in North America.”“It went from going gangbusters to a zippo in just a few—the span of a month,” he said.“I don't think you can overstate the consequences for small businesses on the border here,” he said of the shutdown of Canadian business. “It's been a disaster.”Kehler said that he has received some blowback as a result of his vocal advocacy for affordable housing. “Everybody loves Jasper Hill until we start talking about housing. And everybody wants housing in theory, but almost nobody here wants housing in practice.”“Families with children … are the way that communities replicate themselves,” said Kehler, “and Greensboro has lost its capacity to replicate itself.” He said that Greensboro has erected a metaphorical gate that keeps out young people.Jasper Hill Farm is “going to be fine, but … Greensboro is not going to be fine,” he continued. The housing crisis “is not existential for us but it probably is existential for the nursing home, and it is absolutely existential for the school, and it's going to be a huge problem for the town when there's nobody to volunteer for the fire department” and other town organizations.Kehler is now advocating for affordable housing on a statewide level. He said that Vermont needs a new model of multi-unit housing.“The days of single family homes spread out and in the middle of nowhere on the back end of dirt roads is basically over,” he asserted.

Det går mot Genopoddens siste episode for året, og da er det naturlig å snakke om en liten matfaglig sensasjon; nemlig norsk ost! I studio har vå fått inn to osteeksperter. Begge har de lang erfaring i som ostedommere, og de deler det vi ikke kan kalle noe annet enn stor kjærlighet til norske oster. Katharina Sandberg Lund er en entusiastisk formidler av alt som har med OST å gjøre. Hun er utdannet servitør og har ledet Norges- og Oslo Servitørlaug; arrangert og vært dommer i OsloCup for servitørlærlinger og hadde i en årrekke ansvaret for de største ostediskene i landet.

Siri Helen er grunder og driver Winther Artisan Food & Restaurant og Wither Ysteri. Hun har en helt spesiell kjærlighet til ost. Hun har i hele sin yrkeskarriere jobbet med norske råvareprodusenter. Det er godt at vi har disse to som skal svare på alle spørsmålene vi har om norske oster, eller ost generelt. For hva er egentlig ost? Hva er de norske Hva har skjedd med Norge som ostenasjon? Hva betyr kvalitet på grunnproduktet? Dette er og mere til vil du få svar på i denne episoden av Genopodden. Som en ekstra bonus har Oda fått være utegående reporter på Øvre Gangstad gård på Inderøy. Her lager de nemlig verdens beste ost, Nidelven Blå, på Gangstad Gårdsysteri. Noe Maren og Ole Morten Gangstad kan fortelle mer om.

The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson: Around this time, last November, we spoke with Tor Krueger of The Udder Way Cheese Co, following wins at the World Cheese Awards – now, Tor returns to the show to discuss the wins at the Royal Winter Fair but also this year's multi-medal performance at The 2023 World Cheese Awards! The HSR might be on the top of mind for most Hamiltonians right now but let's talk about a different union action, one that has now resolved: the Hollywood actors strike is over! What now? Christmas is around the corner but Canadians are likely to be cautious with their spending. What will this season look like in retail? A recent Leger poll that has come to back into view is one that showed many Canadians were unaware of historical genocides, including the Holocaust. What happened with Huawei, anyway? There have been many distractions and developing stories since the Huawei controversies. The U.S. and the Biden administration has been in “ongoing conversations” with Israel, and today the White House announced that daily humanitarian pauses will be instituted in Gaza: The U.S. is being cautious and clear with their boundaries in regard to the Israel-Hamas war, to be sure that they are not seen as being directly involved. The HSR strike has begun: where could this go, and what should the city do in this scenario? Sales and use of Electric Vehicles continue to strengthen but some experts are saying that Canada does not have the charging infrastructure needed.

Elaine “Foodbod” Boddy presents the sixth episode of the Foodbod Pod in which she and David Treadway visit White Lake Cheese to meet farmer and award-winning artisan cheesemaker, Roger Longman.   Roger discusses his journey into cheesemaking and guides us through the process from the milk and other ingredients to the finished cheeses and describes the range and variety he produces on his farm in Somerset. Returning from a career in engineering, Roger took over the family farm and built on its origins as a small Cheddar producer to create White Lake Cheese, developing it into one of the UK's most respected artisanal cheese producers that has gathered an impressive number of prizes at the World Cheese Awards, several Supreme Champion medals at The Bath & West Cheese Awards as well as a number of coveted Great Taste awards.   White Lake produces a wide range of hand-made cheeses from soft to hard, including sheep's cheese, cow's cheese and goat's cheese using the milk from Roger's own herd of over 700 goats. From Little She to Driftwood, Solstice to Rachel Reserva, English Pecorino to Fetish, Roger shows Elaine how the different cheeses are made and matured and describes the processes and treatments required for each kind of cheese and how flavour and rind is developed.   Elaine joins Roger and food blogger Sally Prosser for a cheese and sourdough lunch and later gets to meet the goats, finds out more about their diet and behaviour and visits the milking parlour and the nursery where the kids are weened.     Find out more and see the recipes featured across the series: https://foodbodpod.com   Watch Elaine and Roger on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@foodbodpod   Join us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thefoodbodpod

Vi har nå to spor å følge på veien til World Cheese Awards i Trondheim i oktober 2023. Vi har startet på det historiske sporet, og vi har startet konkurranse & oppmerksomhetssporet. I dag skal vi starte det tredje sporet, og det er det der interesse, fag og nerding skal få løpe fritt… I dagens episode møter vi Jan Peter Aursnes som er selvoppnevnt osteevangelist og har nese for ost. Først og fremst ost av råmelk, og spesielt er han glad i skorpe. Jan Peter kan rett og slett ikke få nok skorpe. Så er det jo også det Ostepod handler om, Under skorpa og inn i kjernen. God fornøyelse!

Smugling av ost, streik i Frankrike, sovende yster og The Norwegian Blue. Sammenhengen? Vel. Det har vært en helt utrolig reise fra de første spede tankene om at det å delta i World Cheese Awards var mulig, til nå å arrangere verdensmesterskapet i ost for andre gang i Norge. Og det er mannen bak alt dette vi har som gjest i den andre episoden av Ostepod. Så nå er vi virkelig i gang med forberedelsene og oppvarmingen til World Cheese Awards i Trondheim i oktober. Det er kun 267 dager igjen til det braker løs i Trondheim… La oss komme i gang med VM-forberedelsene! God fornøyelse! PS. Hold deg oppdatert på Oste-VM 2023 på ostelandet.no

The World Cheese Awards are organised by the Guild of Fine Food and were first held in 1988. It was originally established to shine a light on artisan cheesemakers and to raise their profile, as well as rewarding quality in cheese making.  It is by far the world's largest cheese-only event and the 34th competition was held at the ICC Wales in Newport this year. There were a record-breaking 4,434 entries; sent to Wales by boat, truck, train, and plane via 19 consolidation points around the world, ensuring as many artisan cheese producers can enter as possible. AJ is in her seventh heaven and Susie doesn't really talk much this week as she keeps stealing all the cheeses on offer in the studio, amongst them the world's best cheese (official!). Again they are joined by Christabel Cairns of the Guild of Fine Food who are organisers of the World Cheese Awards and Tom Chatfield who represents the World Champion Cheese La Gruyère Surchoix AOP.

We're back and this time we have Joe Salonia on the show. Director of Sales and Marketing in the US for Gourmino Affinage and Selection, Joe is coming off the big win of having a best in show cheese at the World Cheese Awards. Here we kick back and discuss what it means to win such an award and what's next for the cheesemakers of Gourmino.Heritage Radio Network is a listener supported nonprofit podcast network.

Christabel Cairns organises the Great Taste Awards and is heavily involved in the World Cheese Awards. How do you manage the pure logistics of judging 14,000 products each year and how do you get three stars? Christabel joins Susie and AJ as a guest presenter for the next four weeks and brings a whole host of Great Taste Award winning products to assess. First, off she talks about Try January - why not try something new that you haven't before - much more exciting than Dry January and possible a bit more daring than Veganuary.

A new report just published by the Migration Advisory Committee has highlighted agricultural workers as being severely vulnerable to exploitation. The M.A.C. also says immigrant workers with little or no English are more likely to be exploited and this is why it advised the government to include an English language requirement in its visas for butchery workers last year. 800 visas were granted to help ease a bottleneck of pigs being processed, because of a shortage of workers. The report also details how Brexit and Covid have both had an impact on the availability of labour, from home and abroad. We ask committee chair Professor Brian Bell whether safeguards, such as the Gangmasters Licensing Authority are working well enough to protect vulnerable workers. We also ask the NFU for their response and ask what they make of plans to pilot a rural visa, to help stop depopulation in more remote communities. A cheesemaker in one of the most remote parts of England has been celebrating the seal of approval after winning gold at the World Cheese Awards. Doddington Dairy, in the Glendale Valley in Northumberland has had a turbulent 12 months. This time last year, they lost power for 11 days following Storm Arwen, and when the back-up generator broke down, the owner had to drive miles overnight to get a replacement, so they could milk the cows. However, owner, Neil Maxwell, says getting the seal of approval from experts is priceless for a small cheesemaker. Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney

The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Radley: Mariah Carey was told by the courts to not call herself “The Queen of Christmas”, and we frankly agree. A Hamilton cheesemaker is utterly thrilled after winning a handful of awards — including Best Canadian Cheese — at the World Cheese Awards. With the holiday season ramping up, it's a critical time of year for small businesses. Canada's annual inflation rate held steady at 6.9 per cent last month. After declining for several months, Statistics Canada said the rate of inflation was unchanged in October from September as gas prices went up. The cryptocurrency industry — and the institutions and investors with billions wrapped up in it — are still coming to terms with the fallout from the collapse of FTX, once one of the largest crypto exchanges in the world. The threat of another CUPE strike is frustrating to parents and kids in school. However, it seems that perhaps the public is still on the side of the education workers. There are concerns that another strike might see a shift in support. All this and more on Hamilton Today! Guests: Tor Kreuger, owner of Udder Way Artisan Cheese Co. Dan Kelly, President of the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) Eric Kam, Professor of macroeconomics, Monetary Economics, International Monetary Economics, Implications of Monetary Growth, with Toronto Metropolitan University.

La Alianza Agroalimentaria Aragonesa celebra el próximo miércoles una nueva edición de la jornada "Verde que te quiero verde". Se debatirá sobre “Una cesta de la compra llena de sostenibilidad ambiental, social y económica”. Ángel Jiménez, decano del Colegio de Agrónomos, nos ha acompañado para adelantarnos los contenidos de esta edición. El pasado 3 de noviembre se conmemoraba el Día Mundial de la Biodiversidad. España es el país de Europa con mayor superficie protegida. Con un 36% de suelo preservado, aporta el 27% de toda la extensión de la Red Natura 2000 de Europa. Aragón cumple así mismo un papel destacado, con la declaración de 204 espacios. En total, se trata de 13.612 kilómetros cuadrados de espacio protegido, es decir, el 28'5% de la Comunidad Autónoma de Aragón. De la importancia de la preservación de estos espacios hablamos hoy en Agricultura2030. La Comunidad General de Regantes del Canal de Aragón y Cataluña ha organizado para el próximo jueves una jornada técnica sobre la economía circular en su ámbito geográfico.

A Polish court recently found parts of EU law were incompatible with the country's constitution, and there have been calls from some quarters to withhold EU funds from Poland in response.

Entrevista com Paulo Rezende e Rosana Rezende proprietários da Fazenda Atalaia, 1º Queijo Brasileiro a ganhar medalha de Ouro no World Cheese Awards. Situada a aproximadamente 140 km da Capital do Estado de São Paulo, no município de Amparo, a Fazenda Atalaia destaca-se enquanto um exemplar da História, Arquitetura, Cultura, em suma da identidade paulista em seus decisivos oitocentos. A propriedade que pertenceu a Pedro Penteado, presidente do Banco Industrial de Amparo datada de 1870 traduz visualmente o resultado da cultura material do café. Em 2016, foi de lá que saiu o primeiro produto brasileiro premiado com uma medalha de ouro no World Cheese Awards, realizado em San Sebastian na Espanha: o Queijo Tulha, fabricado a partir de uma massa cozida com leite de vaca tipo A, com baixo teor de gordura e três tipos de maturação (8, 12, e 18 meses na antiga tulha de café). Graças à ação de fungos, bactérias e leveduras típicas do ambiente natural da tulha, o queijo têm uma casca dura e avermelhada. Sua massa é firme como a de um parmesão, mas ela desmancha na boca durante o consumo, revelando seu sabor salgadinho delicadamente cítrico, com a presença de cristais que lembram maracujá. Não à toa, ele é utilizado por diversos Chefs e Restaurantes de São Paulo. ​Outros best-sellers da queijaria são o queijo Mogiana - que é maturado por 120 dias, tem boa acidez, tom alaranjado por conta do uso de urucum na massa e é indicado para receitas quentes - e o queijo Mantiqueira, de sabor suave apresentando duas versões: com casca maturada com alecrim ou lavada na cerveja Stout que, na boca apresenta uma maior cremosidade. www.fazendaatalaiaamparo.com.br @fazendaatalaia Endereço: Rodovia SP 352 - KM 137,5 - Alferes Rodrigues, Amparo - SP, 13900-000

Dane Hopkins is the Dairy Director at Lynher Dairies, the lauded cheese producer in West England, Cornwall. Lynher Dairies makes the cheese that was Supreme Champion at the World Cheese Awards in 2017, an alpine-style cheese called Kern. Another cheese they make is Cornish Yarg (wrapped in nettle leaves!!), which is also a multiple award-winning product and is a beloved representation of their special corner of the world. They also make a great cheese called Stithians.Lynher Dairies is a farmhouse cheese and their Supreme Champion Kern is a 'nutty and savory farmhouse cheese with sweet endnotes' (quoting my Food52 article that accompanies the video I hosted for them, linked below)...so what IS farmhouse cheese, anyway?! I set out to answer that question for you in this Keep It Quirky mini episode, with the help of not only Dane Hopkins, but also Gareth Hewer, who works in the maturation team at London's preeminent cheese shop, Neal's Yard Dairy.Dane and I also talk about how he develops recipes for new cheeses, what it's like being a specialist cheesemaker making handmade cheeses, and the entrepreneur spirit behind his work.

Welcome to the Inside Yorkshire Podcast, a podcast full of stories and tales from the people of Yorkshire. On today’s episode, Susan talks to Andy Swinscoe about his passion for making cheese and doing it in a way that supports local, sustainable farming. He talks about the awards that The Courtyard Dairy has won and says that they’ve won the awards because he loves cheese so much and gets it from farmers who love it just as much as he does. Key Takeaways: Andy and his wife Kathy run The Courtyard Dairy. Andy has a long history working in the cheese industry. He gained a lot of knowledge and experience working with cheese in France but was very interested in coming back home and tapping into the local potential for cheesemaking. He and his wife then started the business from scratch as a two-person business for two years. They championed small producers and rural farms. Even in the early days, The Courtyard Dairy began winning awards. Within their first year, Andy won Cheesemonger of the Year in the World Cheese Awards. This gained them a lot of national press and helped grow the business. This past year, they won the Countryside Alliance Rural Oscars, which is awarded to businesses that support rural enterprise and rural communities. They’ve also won the British Cheese Awards, the Farm, Shop, and Deli Awards, and been listed as one of the best cheese shops in not just the UK, but the world. Andy views the cheese business as a way to support small, sustainable family farms and keep the rural economy going. Andy says the product is good and wins awards because it’s made on such a small scale with care and attention to detail. Proper farmhouse cheese is an expression of where it’s made. But it can be hard when the farmers have to deal with a low yield season. Andy says their ethos is always going to be farmhouse and traditional first. Along with the cheese shop, The Courtyard Dairy also has a cheese museum. Andy thinks it’s important not to let people get too far divorced from where their food comes from and wants to show people the local history of cheese and cheese-making, how it’s made today, and the differences between industrial cheese and farmhouse cheese. Best Moments: “In those days, in fine dining, if you ordered a cheeseboard, you’d have cheddar and Stilton from England and everything else was French.” “The initial shop was the size of most people’s kitchens.” “What I like doing is I like selling cheese. I love championing small farmhouse cheesemakers, and that’s why we win awards.” “It’s not just about the cheese for me, it’s about jobs and rural economy.” “My opinion is that people are so disconnected from their produce and where things are from and how the product is made and we want to not just sell cheese but actually to tell the story of the history of cheese in this area.” Valuable Resources: https://www.thecourtyarddairy.co.uk About the Host: Susan has been living in Yorkshire for over 30 years. She is passionate about the county she has adopted as her home and she never ceases to be amazed at the wealth of talent ‘Inside Yorkshire’ and the tales that people have to tell. About the Guest: The Courtyard Dairy is a unique, specialist cheese-shop and cheese-maturer, owned and operated by Andy and Kathy Swinscoe. In 2017, the shop expanded into new premises, and at the same time, a museum telling the history and story of farmhouse cheese, a café serving cheese-based dishes (and, of course, coffee!), and a cheese production room were added, alongside plenty of free on-site parking.  The shop itself has become a renowned destination shop, where regulars and visitors alike enjoy the opportunity to sample and purchase some of the finest cheese to be found in Europe, whilst benefiting from Andy and Kathy’s comprehensive and entertaining cheese knowledge.   Contact Method: Susan Baty-Symes insideyorkshire.co.uk susan@insideyorkshire.co.uk

Wine Guy Mike Today on The Tasting Room I am going to introduce you to Tom Van Voorhees, Cheese Monger for The Rogue Creamy located in Central Point, Oregon. Live Stream The Tasting Room on KFGM 105.5 FM from 12:00 - 1:00MST right here; http://tunein.com/radio/KFGM---Missoula-Community-Radio-s288054/?utm_source=tiEmbed&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=s288054 Tom Van Voorhees Cheese Monger at Rogue Tom and his wife relocated to Oregon from New York 10 years ago so Tom could begin his career as Cheese Monger at the Rogue Creamery. A Cheese Monger is the manager of the retail cheese department and they are responsible for managing the cheese inventory, selecting the cheese menu, purchasing, receiving, storing, and development of the cheese ripening. Tom has been officially recognized as the top Cheese Monger in the United States. Tom and I have been friends for nearly 10 years now and I rely on him for cheese recommendations frequently. My catering company, Scratch Catering, serves Rogue Creamery cheese selections exclusively. Rogue Valley AVA History The Rogue Valley AVA wine history dates back to the 1840's. European immigrants planted grapes and eventually bottled wines.  In 1852, an early settler, Peter Britt, began growing grapes and in 1873 founded Valley View Winery, Oregon's first official winery. A professor from Oregon State University planted an experimental test vineyard in the Rogue Valley AVA in 1968 and discovered this region was a great place to grow grapes and in 1972 the Wisnovsky family renewed the Vally View Winery namesake for their winery label. There are four main growing areas in the Rogue Valley AVA, Bear Creek Valley, Illinois Valley, the Valley of the Rogue, and the Applegate Valley which in itself is its own AVA. Overall there are 16 federally approved AVA's or viticulture growing areas in Oregon. The Rogue Valley AVA covers 1.15 million acres of intermountain valley area in Southern Oregon. The Rogue Valley AVA Grape Varietals Del Rio Vineyards from the Rogue Valley AVA Syrah, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, and Chardonnay are the major grape varietals that are predominant.  There are three valleys that have progressively warmer microclimates providing the Rogue Valley the diversity for growing both warm and cool climate grape varietals.  Pinot Noir is grown to the west as this microclimate is influenced by mountain and ocean winds that cool the area and to the east, the warm weather varieties thrive.  Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Sauvignon Blanc grow in the hills at elevations of nearly 2,000 feet producing grapes with concentrated fruit and sugar. History of Rogue Creamery The Rogue Creamery history spans nearly eight decades. Italian immigrant Tom Vella who had settled in the Sonoma, California area set his sights on the Rogue Valley as an area of opportunity to found a creamery. When Tom arrived it was small farms and pear orchards and the main industry was lumber. Tom was a visionary and entrepreneur opening the small creamery during the Depression, a gutsy move considering the lack of economic climate in the United States. Tom’s goal was to grow the creamery as fast as possible in order to provide employment and sustain the area's small farms.  The farmers supported Tom in his endeavor. The Southern Pacific Rail line that ran from Los Angeles, California to Seattle, Washington passed through Medford which is the larger city located right next to Central Point.  Passengers traveling between San Francisco, California and Seattle stopped to enjoy theatrical performances at the historic Holly Theatre. Rogue Creamery Cheese Selections The Rogue Creamery flourished during the Depression and provided significant amounts of Cheddar cheese for the troops that fought in World War II.  After the war, the Rogue Creamery changed focus and was retooled to serve civilian markets. Cottage cheese was very successfully introduced to the consumer market and served as the transition for the Rogue Creamery to become the premier producer of Blue Cheese that it is today. Inspired by the success of the Cottage cheese Tom Vella knew he needed to grow his product base and Blue Cheese was on Tom’s radar. As the wise entrepreneur that he was, he decided to go right to the source of the best Blue Cheese in the world, Roquefort, France. It was there that Tom and his wife spent the summer of 1955. Tom’s good fortune, talent, and fluency in Italian opened many doors. The Roquefort Association, although shrouded in secrecy, welcomed Tom when he spoke to the supervisor of the facilities in the man’s native dialect. Presented with a gold pass signed by all functionaries of the Society, Tom toured operations from farms to cheese factories to the curing limestone caves at Cambalou. At summer's end, Tom departed France with plans for a Roquefort type cheese factory, already producing Oregon Blue in his imagination.  Construction began in Central Point in 1956. Tom envisioned caves similar to the environment of Cambalou and designed a building to duplicate that atmosphere.  Two Quonset-shaped half circled rooms of cement were poured, one over the other, with space in between for insulation. The result was a true cave-like atmosphere. Rogue Creamery Retail Store Production of blue began in early 1955, instant success validated Vella’s business acumen.  This was the first blue cheese produced in caves west of the Missouri River. Over the years Vella’s dedication to quality was unwavering to the end as was his enthusiasm for the business and the Rogue Valley.  He died on December 23, 1998, at age 100. The Rogue Creamery was inherited by Tom’s family and his son Ignazio who became the driving force behind the creamery.  Ignazio's reputation as “The Godfather of the artisan cheese industry” really says it all.  Ig, as he was known, stayed on as a mentor to current owners David Gremmels and Cary Bryant who are now the senior cheese makers. Ig, Cary, and David Today, the Rogue Creamery is thriving. Gremmels and Bryant have steadfastly held to the principles laid out by Tom and Ig Vella. The creamery’s Mission Statement; An artisan cheese company, with people dedicated to service, sustainability and the art and tradition of making the world's finest handmade cheese. Rogue-River-Blue Cheese-with-certificates In the first two years under the leadership of Gremmels and Bryant, the Creamery had won numerous trophies and awards, including World’s Best Blue Cheese at the 2003 World Cheese Awards in London, a first for a U.S. creamery. The Rogue Creamery produces some of the finest blue and cheddar cheese selections in the world. They are Certified Organic and are quickly headed to also being Certified Biodynamic. Here are a few cheese pairing tips from Cheese Monger Tom Van Voorhees. Cheese Pairing Tips Pairing Tips; Pair regional foods, wine, and beer together. Pair light colored wines and beers with fresh cheeses. Wines higher in tannin exaggerate flavors in cheese ie. fat, sharpness, sweetness and animal flavors.  Dessert wines pair nicely with cheeses that have a salty, sharp or bitter flavor. Rogue Creamery Smokey Blue Cheese BLUE CHEESE; Generally pairs well with full-bodied red wines, or sweeter whites such as Gewürztraminer or late harvest dessert wine and Port is classic wine and cheese pairing. CHEDDAR; Generally pairs well with medium to dry white and red wines, especially the sharp and extra-sharp cheddars. Flavored cheddars, usually at the mild or medium level, will expand the selections in both categories of wine.  Don’t forget the beers – cheddars are classic companions to a variety of ales, stouts, and lagers. CURDS; Very light in traditional cheese characteristics; the flavoring agents become prevalent in the flavored varieties.  Curds pair well with most beers, and with lighter white and red wines. It has been great having Tom Van Voorhees join me in The Tasting Room today and even better sampling the world-class cheese selections from the Rogue Creamery! From my table to yours,
