A Comté the Best Cheese in the World
A cheese that’s been sitting on a shelf for two years has been named the world’s best.
A nutty, crumbly, deeply complex 24-month-aged Comté creation from France’s eastern border is the best cheese in the world.
It is the first French victory for 11 years in this prestigious international competition.
To arrive at a winner, the judges assessed more than 5,000 cheeses – 5330 cheeses from 45 countries to be exact.
My favourite judges comment on the winning cheese came from Domínguez González.
“I love my friends … I love my girlfriend, and I knew I love this cheese,” he said. “I’m very happy.”

And next time when you read in your Frenchbook “Je voudrais un morceau de comté, s’il vous plait“, you’ll know what the person wants to buy.
