We won BEST BLUE CHEESE at the Artisan Cheese Awards 2026! 🧀 🥳

Wow, what a weekend at the Melton Mowbray Cheese Fair!

Thank you to everyone who came to chat with us, tried our cheeses, or took some of our handmade cheese home 🧀

It was a scorcher 🥵 but we loved meeting you all!

We were also very proud to have won some awards at the Artisan Cheese Awards 🧀

🏆 Our Sparkenhoe Shropshire Blue won BEST Blue
🧀 Our other blue cheese Sparkenhoe Blue was highly-commended in the Blue category
🧀 Our brand new Redemore cheese was highly commended in the new cheese category (no wonder it keeps selling out!)
🧀 And our famous Sparkenhoe Red was highly-commended in the Territorial category

Thank you again to everyone who came to support us and see us! We hope to see you again soon 🧀

We’re celebrating after spying our famous Sparkenhoe Red cheese in ’s article on the best British cheeses! 🧀 🥳

British artisan cheeses are growing in popularity around the world - and it’s easy to see why. 👀

Recently, our Sparkenhoe Red won the Ann Marie Dyas award for Best Artisan cheese at last year’s World Cheese Awards.

It also placed as in the top 14 best cheeses in the world!🔥

Our Sparkenhoe Red is made in the traditional way, with everything made completely from scratch on our farm. Even the raw milk comes from the cows grazing our fields! 🐮 🥛

We’re thrilled to now see it in Food and Wine’s article, among some of our other favourite British cheese brands.

We’ve shared the article in our Stories if you’d like a full read 👀
