Congrats to Arethusa Farm Dairy! The Connecticut-based company learned in late February that their Europa Cheese has been named the Best Entry in the U.S. Championship Cheese Contest. In the contest, hosted by a Wisconsin Cheese Markers Association, the gouda cheese was awarded a score of 98.739 out of 100. It beat out 2,249 entries from 197 dairy companies and cooperatives across 35 U.S. states. In addition to cheese, Arethusa makes yogurt, ice cream, milk, butter, sour cream, and seasonal treats. The nearest location on the shoreline is 1020 Chapel Street, New Haven. Call to find out if they have the cheese in stock at 203-390-5114.
