Quesería Familia Gómez Moreno is honored to announce that our artisan truffle sheep cheese, handmade with traditional methods, has received the Great Taste Awards 2021 prize, an international competition held in London and Dorset, United Kingdom..
Premios Great Taste Awards 2021
This competition is one of the largest and most prestigious accreditation systems for food and beverages. It supports small artisan producers whose goal is to bring their products to independent retailers in the United Kingdom.
Great Taste Awards provides an evaluation system and a reference framework, offering independent accreditation that promotes trust and commercial success for such small businesses. The judging of the products entered in this year’s competition was scheduled between April and June 2021 in the cities of London and Dorset.
The competition rates products with one, two, or three stars based on their quality, as determined by the judging panel.
To take part in the competition, companies must submit their application through a form accompanied by additional documentation, which must specify the products that will be entered in the competition.
Other award-winning cheeses of ours at the Great Taste Awards
This recognition is not an isolated event, and our artisan Manchego cheeses made from raw and pasteurized milk have been awarded and recognized by the judges of this prestigious competition. For example, last year the following were selected:
- On one hand, the Carpuela aged Manchego cheese
- The Carpuela cured Manchego cheese also received an award.
- And finally, the Gómez Moreno cured cheese with natural rind.
Once again, we are grateful for the recognition our Manchego cheeses receive, rewarding and strengthening the passion and effort we put into making our cheeses.

Tasting notes from the Great Taste Awards 2021 jury
“There is a good amount of truffle which flavours the cheese gently without being overwhelming. We like that the acidity from the cheese comes through to balance the the richness from the truffle. The finish is long and nutty.
A delicate, perfumed cheese with good flavour of truffle that doesn’t overpower the lactic qualities of the cheese.”
