Dziugas Celebrates 90 Years

Dziugas’s versatility has been a valuable selling point for retailers, who have sold it both as a cheeseboard item and a cooking cheese to traditional and adventurous consumers.

The cheese’s complex and distinctive flavour evolves between its 18, 24 and 36 month varieties, and has garnered popularity across the world – from the UK and Europe to the USA – as well as awards from bodies including International Cheese Show (UK), Russia (ProdExpo), Gulfood Awards (Dubai) and Superior Taste Award (Brussels).

Bobbi Davy, Dziugas spokesperson for the UK said, “The 90th anniversary has been a fantastic year for Dziugas - we have expanded into new international markets, launched new products and have seen sales lift in the UK.

“This year and the last 90 years are a great cause for celebration, and we would like to thank all our stockists for their support.”
