Karoun Dairies Wins Two Awards at the 2012 World Cheese Awards
Award Winning Handmade Cheeses Take Top Honors at the Guild of Fine Food
TURLOCK, Calif., Dec. 7, 2012
For over 20 years, The Guild of Fine Food has brought together the
very best examples of the cheesemakers' art to create the World Cheese
Awards. The World Cheese Awards accepts only cheese entries, no cream,
butter or yogurt - the emphasis is firmly on cheese in all its
magnificence. This year, California cheese maker, Karoun Dairies Inc.
(karouncheese.com), was proudly awarded a Silver and Bronze medal.
Karoun won the Silver for their Mozzarella Ball and a Bronze for their
Goat Basket Feta.
This November a record-setting World Cheese Awards filled the NEC in
Birmingham (UK) with over 2500 cheese entries from 35 countries - the
largest and most respected cheese competition in the world. The
prestigious awards were judged by 220 experts from every corner of the
world including cheese graders, retailers, chefs and buyers.
"We are honored to have won two awards at the 2012 World Cheese Awards
and to receive world recognition by the prestigious Guild of Fine
Food," stated Rostom Baghdassarian, company COO.
The Baghdassarian Family immigrated to the United States from Lebanon
in 1990 to pursue the American dream and a passion for the art and
science of yogurt and cheesemaking. From humble beginnings to being
recognized as one of America's premier cheese companies is a source of
great pride. "As a family business that is living the American dream,
all of us at Karoun Dairies take great pride in creating and
manufacturing the most delicious, best quality, all natural cheeses on
the market," said Rostom Baghdassarian, company COO. "Serving the
Mediterranean, Indian, Middle Eastern, Hispanic and natural markets
using old country methods and family recipes, we are proud to share
delicious new options for a healthy and flavorful approach to cooking
and eating."
As is evident by these latest awards, Karoun continues to set a new
standard for Mediterranean handmade cheeses and all natural yogurt
products in the United States, with dairy products which are made
strictly using only milk from cows that are free from growth hormones,
BGH/rBST, and Real California Milk certified.
Through their proprietary brands, Karoun Dairies services various
ethnic markets in the U.S. Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, European,
Hispanic, Indian, Greek, Russian, Armenian and mainstream American.
