Flagship Brand from Schuman Cheese Celebrates
Multiple Wins, Highlighting Craftsmanship & Quality
FAIRFIELD, N.J., July 24,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Schuman Cheese, world-class,
fourth-generation cheesemaker, is proud to announce multiple award
wins for its flagship brand, Cello, at the recent American Cheese
Society (ACS) Annual Judging & Competition. These accolades
underscore Cello's longstanding presence at the forefront of the
category, with a legacy of award-winning varietals, and are a
testament to a deep-rooted commitment to excellence and
craftsmanship in cheesemaking.
The outstanding cheeses were expertly crafted at Lake Country
Dairy, a facility that has been consistently recognized for its
eminence in cheesemaking. Located in the heart of America's dairy
land, Wisconsin, Lake Country
Dairy's skilled cheesemakers follow traditional Old-World practices
to produce authentic cheeses of the highest caliber; they are the
only American cheesemakers currently crafting hard Italian cheese
in traditional copper vats, a method that has set apart Cello's
award-winning Extra Aged Copper Kettle Parmesan.
In a highly competitive field, Cello distinguished itself once
again with remarkable achievements:

Copper Kettle: A special edition, 36-month aged version of the
brand's flagship Parmesan, Cello's Extra Aged Copper Kettle cheese

exquisite texture. This recognition affirms the meticulous aging
process and dedication to quality that defines Cello's approach to
cheesemaking.

Romano cheese impressed the judges, securing a second-place
finish.
- Asiago: Achieving a distinct nutty flavor and smooth
