The 2009 US Championship Cheese contest announced their results, and the US Champion is John Griffiths from Sartori Foods in Antigo, WI, for his SarVecchio Parmesan. SarVecchio has long been one of our favorites – we had a great time meeting with Master Cheesemaker Larry Steckbauer at the Antigo plant – and it is wonderful to see this cheese get more recognition.
Wisconsin cheesemakers, and especially the Master Cheesemakers, are well represented on the winners lists from Cheddar to surface ripened mixed milk cheeses.
