Last month, 16 of the best cheese professionals in the world found themselves in France for the 2023 Le Mondial du Fromage. Over the course of two days, cheesemongers compete in a variety of events from a written knowledge test to a blind tasting and even a five-part event that showcases their cutting and plating abilities with an “artistic presentation of a cheese” with the theme “Cheese in the Stars.”
At the end of it all, Sam Rollins of Cowbell Cheese Shop in Portland took home second place, the highest an American has ever finished in the Mondial’s 10-year history. Rollins joined OPB’s “All Things Considered” host Crystal Ligori to talk about his journey to cheese champion.
