Local success at World Cheese Awards

Isle of Man Creamery is celebrating after winning silver and bronze prizes at the World Cheese Awards.

The runner-up prize went to the organisation's Grated Mature Cheddar, with its Cracked Peppercorn Mature Cheddar taking home the bronze.

The World Cheese Awards were held at the the recent BBC Good Food Show, the biggest showcase for consumer food and drink in the United Kingdom.

More than 2,500 cheeses were entered by around 400 producers from around the world, and the tasting panel consisted of 200 international judges.

Sales director at Isle of Man Creamery Rob Evans said: 'We are absolutely delighted to have won two awards at the Prestigious World Cheese Awards, and it's a credit to everyone at the Creamery'.
