Bothwell Cheese is one of the few remaining
Canadian
artisanal cheesemakers still thriving today. They
remain committed to the local agricultural community
by using local milk which is delivered right to their
plant.
In early January it was announced that Bothwell
Cheese, Dairy Farmers of Manitoba, and the Manitoba
Bulk Milk Haulers will provide monthly cheese
donations worth $200,000 per year to Winnipeg
Harvest for Manitobans in need, and have committed
to the program for five years, which adds up to $1
million worth of cheese. This donation will ensure that
the much needed calcium component is available to
the clients of Winnipeg Harvest.
Bothwell Cheese has again been awarded the first-
place Trophy in the marble cheddar class at the
prestigious 81st Annual British Empire Cheese Show.
This is three years in a row the Manitoba-based
cheese maker has taken first place with its Marble
Cheddar; it was also awarded third place this year for
its Monterey Jack.
"The British Empire Cheese Show is one of the most
highly regarded international cheese competitions in
Canada," says Bothwell Cheese President & CEO
Ivan Balenovic. "This award once again highlights the
extraordinary talent of our skilled cheese makers who
put extra care into every cheese they make. It's owing
to their hard work and dedication that our Marble
Cheddar is the best - and has been acknowledged
as such for the past three years."
The Mulberry Tree Gift Baskets

Wine Country gift baskets. We can also add Bothwell
Cheese to any basket that you order!
Bothwell Cheese can be found at many retailers
throughout Manitoba.
