Butlers Farmhouse Cheeses wins 26 awards

Butlers Farmhouse Cheeses has returned from the International Cheese & Dairy Awards with a haul of 26 trophies.

The fourth-generation Longridge-based family cheesemaker won awards across its blue, hard and soft varieties including cow’s, sheep’s and goat’s milk.

It represents the company's most successful show to date, topping last year's 19 awards.

Key awards include a trophy for the Best Ewes Milk Cheese for Parlick Brie, and Gold for Parlick Olive.

Gold awards were also given for Mrs Butlers Creamy in the Creamy Lancashire Block cheese category; Mature your Own Blacksticks in the packaging category, Beacon Blue in the blue veined goats category and Kidderton Ash in the vegetarian soft category.

Matthew Hall, owner at Butlers Farmhouse Cheeses, said: "The ICDA is a key calendar date for cheesemakers globally, and to be recognised with these accolades across our range of hard, blue and soft cheeses is fantastic and deserved recognition for the hard work of our talented team.

"As a 90-year old Lancashire family business, we’re leading the British cheese renaissance in the UK, it’s a really exciting place to be, and there is still so much more to come!"

Butlers Farmhouse Cheeses was founded in 1932 when Richard and Annie Butler made just a handful of Lancashire cheeses in the family kitchen. Butlers produce more than 1000 tonnes of farmhouse cheese every year, employ over 100 people, supply all major UK retailers and have an online cheese store delivering nationally. Butlers is currently recruiting in its production and engineering team, for more information visit butlerscheeses.co.uk/pages/careers
