Cheesemaker’s Day is celebrated on June 18. Many of us love cheese and know how different it is, depending on the place where it is made, on how exactly it was made. Many of us love cheese and know exactly where the best cheeses are made.
The Russian vacation rental booking service TVIL.RU conducted a survey on social networks on the topic: where exactly did they try the most delicious cheeses? And this is what they answered.
1. Kostroma was in first place, chosen by 30% of voters. This city has long been the Russian capital of cheese. The local durum variety resembles Gouda. Kostroma cheese received prizes at the World Exhibition in London back in 1880.
2. In second place is Adygea, the choice of 20% of subscribers. Many of us love soft Adyghe cheese with a mild taste, which is made exclusively from cow’s milk.
3. In third place is the Krasnodar Territory, whose cheese was liked by 12% of voting participants. Today Kuban is one of the largest cheese producers in Russia and more than 40 thousand tons of cheeses from goat and cow milk are produced here every year.
4. In fourth place is the Kaliningrad region, whose cheeses were liked by 10% of voting participants. Soft, semi-hard, hard, pickled and processed cheeses are made here. Three types of cheese made in Neman received “gold” and the Grand Prix at the All-Russian competition “Cheese Expo 2024”.
