Biocaseus 2012, the sixth edition of the International Prize of organic cheese
We are getting to  the sixth edition of Biocaseus, the international competition of organic cheeses. An event that involving number of producers of organic cheese of all European countries. A world to discover the most part, often hidden in remote corners of the countryside throughout Europe, where the animals live in spacious stables, go to pasture, they are fed naturally, without forcing and with foods free of preservatives and additives able to make them produce more.
Where is pursuing a way of farming that considers animal husbandry and agricultural crop rotation as the necessary completion of the cycles of soil fertility, which continues to hold the manure as an asset rather than a waste to be disposed of in less expensive ways.That continues to consider that making cheese is the most natural and old way to preserve  all the richness of the milk, herbs, bacteria and environment in which it was born.
Biocaseus is an exhibition of masterpieces of art of cheese from Italy, France, Spain, Austria, Germany, Holland, Belgium, since 1999, every two years, we are challenged to learn that the organic cheeses are very good and are better than others, and interpret the typical culture of the places and the people who created them.
