A new Somerset cheese has been crowned the best in Britain after blowing the judges away with its fresh melt-in-the-mouth flavour at the Virtual Cheese Awards 2021.
Spanish-inspired cheese wins at Virtual Cheese Awards The second year of the Virtual Cheese Awards in association with Food and Drink Wales ended with La Fresca Margarita, a fresh young cow’s milk cheese produced by Feltham’s Farm named the Best British cheese.
Joint silver went to Harvey & Brockless by Cellar Dairy for its goats cheese Blanche and Butler’s Farmhouse Cheeses for its oak-fired Red Leicester Smouldering Ember; Wyke Farms was awarded bronze with its Ivy’s Reserve Vintage Cheddar.
The Virtual Cheese Awards was created in 2020 by Sarah de Wit to celebrate and support Britain’s cheese industry during the Covid-19 pandemic which threatened to decimate the industry.
