The UK’s leading smoky cheese has won its third award in two years. Applewood has taken out the silver award for the Smoked Cheese class at this year’s Virtual Cheese Awards. This success follows hot on the heels of Applewood winning Bronze in the Smoky Flavour Cheese category at the ICDA and Bronze in the Blended – Smoked Category of the British Cheese Awards.
Senior brand manager, Ffion Davies, said: “The Applewood team are over the moon to win this latest accolade from the prestigious Virtual Cheese Awards. We have been the UK's number one smoky cheese for many years now and it is great to still be winning awards and getting recognition for this fantastic cheese, which is the perfect blend of farmhouse cheddar, a delicate smoky flavour and a lovely smooth texture, all finished with a dusting of paprika.”
Applewood was the first branded cheese to introduce a plant-based version when it launched Applewood Vegan back in 2019, which has gone on to win 12 awards and is available in Block, Grated, Slices and new Minis snacking format.
Available nationwide, including Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Morrisons, Ocado and Waitrose.
