Judge's comments:

Lewis Road Creamery impressed the judges with their dedication to creating products, starting with butter and milk, that are just the most luscious, lightly handled combination they could achieve of the best ingredients they could find. Dismayed by how big dairy made commodities of these staples, using technology to stretch them to the minimum fat levels legally required to be labelled milk, they set out to build a brand known for great natural, tasty products. Their commitment to that brand and its natural, tasty values has built an enterprise of substance. From Dairy to ice cream, liqueur and cider. And who will ever forget the arrival of Lewis Road Whitakers Chocolate Milk?
