American Cheese Society Award Winners


American Cheese Society’s annual judging is considered the creme de la creme in the cheese world. Beyond being several days of education and networking of cheesemakers, retailers and distributors look to the award winners to decide which cheeses they’ll carry and promote. Any of these cheeses are truly worth your time.

This year’s California winners, in various categories, include:

A short selection of 1st place winners include Sierra Nevada's Gina Marie Farmers Cheese, Shooting Star Creamery’s Leo, and Laura Chenel’s Mango Habenero Fresh goat cheese.

All cheeses are worth a search in your local retailer or farmers market.
