Bulgarian goat's milk cottage cheese won the highest distinction at the most prestigious world taste awards, the Great Taste Awards. The product from the "Harmonica" portfolio received three stars from the international experts, and two more products of the same brand - lemonade and spelt salads - were awarded one star each. The Bulgarian manufacturer is among the prize-winners of the prestigious awards for the sixth year in a row, but for the first time it has received the highest recognition, three stars.
Recognized as a hallmark of excellence and actively sought after by foodies and retailers alike, the Great Taste Awards value taste above all else. The products are tasted blind: each one is removed from the packaging so that it cannot be recognized before being evaluated according to strict criteria. More than 500 experts took part in this year's judging, which took place over 90 days in Dorset and London with more than 500 experts taking part. They evaluated food and drink from 110 countries around the world, and the products themselves submitted as applications for distinction from the competition were more than 14,000. Of all of them, 4,078 were awarded 1 star, 1,237 - 2 stars, and 241 were awarded 3 stars for exceptional, extraordinarily good taste.
Harmonika is one of two Bulgarian brands with products awarded with three stars - with less than 1% of applicants receiving this highest rating. A total of 11 Bulgarian products were awarded - three of them are by Harmonika.
"Receiving three stars at Great Taste is a huge recognition for Harmonika, a sign that we are achieving our goal of offering clean food with superior taste," commented Lyubomir Nokov, co-founder. "The awards from this prestigious forum are also recognition for the priceless gifts of Bulgarian nature and tradition and for the work of Bulgarian producers. This global assessment makes us continue to follow our responsible policy for environmental protection and support for Bulgarian farmers," he added.
The most highly awarded product - Harmonika's goat's milk curd, is made from organic Bulgarian milk from goats raised on pastures in the fresh air and under the mountain sun. It is very rich in proteins and can be enjoyed as a delicacy.
