CHEESE lovers can look forward to the SA Cheese Festival, which is taking place from 28 April to 1 May on the historical Bien Donné farm between Paarl and Franschhoek.
Among the cheese on show will be Fairview, which was among South African cheeseries which made their debut at the World Champion Cheese Contest in Wisconsin USA recently.
Fairview Cheese achieved three fifth places with its Camembert, St Martin Goat’s Camembert and Boland Blue.
These cheeses competed against a total of 172 other entries in the classes for Brie and Camembert, semi-soft goat’s milk cheese and blue-veined cheese.
An Emmenthaler made by Von Muhlenen in Switzerland was crowned world champion, with two Dutch cheeseries, Uniekaas and Friesland Foods Cheese, finishing in second and third place respectively with their Parrano Gouda and Young Gouda Spiced with Cumin.
