US Cheese named best in the world

Post by Sean Hayden » Sun Nov 03, 2019 3:38 pm

Rogue River Blue has taken the top prize at the 2019 World Cheese Awards, marking the first time a US cheese has ever been named World Champion Cheese.
"The idea that great cheese can only be crafted in France or Italy is simply not true, and we're seeing more and more cheeses from the likes of Japan, South Africa and Russia hitting the high notes with our judges and delivering a true sense of terroir," he said.

"Rogue River Blue has done exactly that, with everything about the cheese telling a story of Oregon's climate, its seasons and its people, from the Syrah leaves and pear liqueur to the organic milk itself."

If it was real #FAKENEWS you would've had to refer to them as "Failing CNN". :D Unless the World Cheese Awards arrange affairs like that other famous institution, The World Series.

Oregon has a number of cheesemakers. Tillamook's 'extra sharp' cheddar is rather good, in my opinion.
