Discovering theWorld’s Best Dairy

Winning Results

Wisconsin Cheese Makers Association was honored to host an international team of judges and an impressive array of samples of cheese, butter, yogurt and dairy ingredients from around the globe at the 2020 World Championship Cheese Contest March 3-5 in Madison.

It was our largest event ever, with a breath-taking 3,667 entries from 26 nations and 36 American states. Every category received more support from dairy manufacturers: sheep and goat’s milk entries rose, yogurts and dairy ingredients grew, and many categories of cow’s milk cheese swelled, led by growth in extra aged gouda from Europe and the U.S. Dairy innovation and the growth of value-added products is exciting to see.

A near-perfect wheel of Gruyere from Switzerland, submitted by Gourmino for cheesemaker Michael Spycher at Mountain Dairy Fritzenhaus, rose to earn best of show – the World Champion Cheese! And more amazing than that, Mr. Spycher is a second-time World Champion – the first repeat winner in the history of this 63-year-old competition. Our congratulations to this extraordinary cheesemaker.

The World Championship Cheese Contest is hosted by our nonprofit association to advance the art of cheesemaking and promote the craftsmanship of dairy product makers around the world. Beyond the efforts of our dedicated staff, led by contest manager Kirsten Strohmenger, hundreds of industry volunteers make this massive endeavor a reality.

It begins with our 62 judges from 19 countries and 14 states in the U.S. These experts are unpaid, and with the support of their employers, leave their busy work behind and fly at their own expense to spend a week evaluating entries. We are indebted to them, and the organizations that sponsor them.

No one works harder than our core team of volunteer judge leaders – the Red Hats – who spend months creating the Contest with WCMA. Thanks here to Jim Mueller, our Contest Chief Judge, to Assistants Stan Dietsche, Sandy Toney, Tim Czmowski, Mariana Marques de Almeida, Josef Hubatschek and Bill Schlinsog, our chief judge emeritus. Brian Eggebrecht leads our B-Team of volunteers as Contest Chairman. And we extend best wishes to Bob Aschebrock, our former chief judge recuperating from a back injury.

Literally hundreds of busy industry cheesemakers, suppliers, marketers and enthusiasts drop everything in March to make this contest possible. A special shout out to Randy Swenson at Wisconsin Aging and Grading Cheese Inc., Jerry Wicker at WOW Logistics, Jim Mueller, Gary Vidlock, Larry Bell and Richard Wold who devoted weeks, not days, to contest logistics (and heavy lifting). And a tip of the hat to MCT Dairies, who stepped in and worked diligently to release entries from U.S. Customs with great success.

The Championship Cheese Contests are a pleasure to host, because this effort, all in the name of improving the industry, building morale and putting cheesemakers on the map, has molded friendships and created moments of laughter and camaraderie that our family of volunteers will never forget.

See you next year!
