The World is of the notion that whenever the best in cheese is named it should ideally be from France. However that legacy is challenged by a cheese from Winconsin, USA which raced to the top position!
As reported by The Indipendent, Roth Grand Cru Surchoix became the first US bred cheese to win the World Cheese Championships since 1988. The judges gave it a staggering score of 98.8 out of 100 and described it as the "Perfect" cheese beating the Sennerie Spluegen from Switzerland, and Whitestone Cheese Co from New Zealand.
This cheese is made up of salt, enzymes and pasteurized cultured milk and is being in the process of perfection for the last 25 years. It appears to have a dark golden rind and an ivory colour on the inside. It is a treat for people with a sweet tooth with bits and pieces of caramel and umami and some small crystals of salt as it melts in the mouth. The Grand Cru Surchoix is priced at approximately $18 to $25 per pound.
