Viseu, Portugal – November 15, 2024 – The Multiusos Pavilion in Viseu was the setting where food enthusiasts gathered for the 2024 World Cheese Awards, an international event that included the evaluation of 4,786 cheese varieties from different regions around the globe. Last Friday, 240 experts from 40 countries convened in northern Portugal to celebrate excellence in cheesemaking.
Reny Picot USA is pleased to announce that its Triple Crème Brie Saint Rocco has been awarded a prestigious GOLD MEDAL in this highly recognized competition, considered one of the most important cheese awards in the industry.
Reny Picot USA produces our award-winning cheeses in Benton Harbor, MI using milk and cream from Michigan Dairy producers. We are proud to support and procure from Michigan dairies, as we have since our first product in 1987.
The Triple Crème Brie Saint Rocco is known for its rich, creamy texture, complemented by an earthy note of mushroom. With 70% milk fat, this exceptional cheese is characterized by its fine and delicate flavor, undoubtedly delicious.
This latest award adds to the extensive collection of accolades that Reny Picot USA has received over the past 20 years, reinforcing the high quality of our products, which has always been appreciated by our customers.
“We are very proud to have received this recognition at the 2024 WORLD CHEESE AWARDS,” said a spokesperson for Reny Picot USA. “This GOLD MEDAL not only celebrates our commitment to excellence but also reflects the great effort put forth by our company and strengthens our dedication and desire to provide exceptional products that meet the highest quality standards required by all our customers.”
In addition to the aforementioned award, our group has achieved two more medals in this prestigious competition. Señorío de Montelarreina Gran Reserva, a unique cheese made from 100% sheep’s milk, aged for 10-12 months with a bold and penetrating flavor, has been awarded a bronze medal in its category.
Meanwhile, Reny Picot Blue Cheese, made from cow and sheep milk, has received the coveted SUPERGOLD medal. This distinction is awarded exclusively to the top 104 cheeses presented in the competition, placing it among the top 25 cheeses produced in Spain. This recognition is a testament to the hard work and passion that our team puts into every stage of production.
Our commitment to quality and innovation motivates us to continue creating products that not only satisfy the most discerning palates but also represent the best of our cheesemaking tradition. We thank all our customers and partners for their continued support.
