Our Cheddar was honoured at the 2025 International Cheese & Dairy Awards!

We’re delighted to share that Tirlán was awarded 10 medals at the 2025 International Cheese & Dairy Awards, an event that drew over 4,700 entries from across the globe — making it one of the most competitive years yet.

Among the highlights, cheddar produced by Tirlán at our Ballyragget facility earned two of the top honours at the event:

• The Kerrygold Cup – awarded for the Best Cheddar in Ireland
• The DSM Trophy – awarded for the Best Vintage Cheddar

This achievement is a true testament to the quality, care and expertise behind our products.

A special thanks to Gerry Warren, our expert Cheese Grader, whose expert selection played a key role in this success.
