Yoghurt Named Supreme Champion at Great Taste Awards

It was chosen from 9,738 different entries, and described by author and food journalist Xanthe Clay as “a product so exciting, it is in the totally plain lifted into the special category – it is glorious and Britain should be celebrating dairy products like this”.

The yoghurt had to be blind tasted several times by over 30 judges to win the award.

John Farrand, MD of The Guild of Fine Food, which organises the awards, said, “It’s fair to say that this yoghurt had our judges in raptures. It is plain and simple, has nothing added and relies 100% on the quality of the milk from which it’s made. Our Great Taste judges felt that this incredible dairy product was worthy of the top award and our huge congratulations go the Strachan family and their farm partners for this amazing achievement for the British dairy industry.”
