Thanks to the International Caseus Award contest, cheese and the cheese trade have joined the elite of worldwide gastronomy.
The 3rd edition, held at Lyon on January 24th as part of the Sirha trade exhibition, brought together the very best cheeses in the world, also know-how and cultures from the four corners of the planet.
Twelve countries, each represented by two cheese specialists, took part in the 3rd edition of the International Caseus Award contest: Australia, Belgium, Canada, France, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United-States.
