Kāpiti has represented New Zealand cheese on the world stage at the prestigious International Cheese & Dairy Awards, held in Stafford in the UK in October.
It’s with huge pride that we have brought home 10 medals, including the Reserve Champion Overseas Trophy for our Kahurangi Creamy Blue and Best NZ Cheese for our Awa Tangy Blue.
By popular vote Kapiti has also just been nominated the Rutherford & Meyer Favourite NZ Cheese Company 2021 award winner. Another huge accolade to add to Kapiti’s successes, making us not only NZ’s most award cheese company but also NZ’s favourite.
