The Creamery has been left celebrating after Manx cheeses were once again in the prizes at the recent world awards.

Grated Mature Cheddar took a silver award and cracked Peppercorn mature Cheddar scooped a Bronze at the recent World Cheese Awards.

The awards took place last month at the BBC Good Food Show, which is the biggest consumer food and drink show in the UK.

More than 2,500 cheeses were entered by 394 producers from around the world.

A tasting panel of 200 international judges determined the prizes.

Rob Evans of the Creamery said he was delighted for the company and they looked forward to more success in the future.
