1st Place - Smoked Scamorza A firm mozzarella with a mild buttery flavor. It has an elastic texture when young, becoming smooth and dense in texture as it ages. It is lightly smoked over pecan shells. A great melting cheese. Hand-formed into 3/4 lb balls and waxed. .38 lb half piece.

2nd Place - Hoja Santa Goat Pieces Small, mild Goat Cheese rounds wrapped with large aromatic hoja santa leaves that flavor the cheese with a hint of mint and sassafras. Tied with raffia. This lovely cheese is a consistent winner. .34 lb rounds.

2nd Place - Queso Blanco with Chiles and Epazote A traditional Mexican cheese with a milky, clean flavor. It is fresh and moist and crumbles easily. Softens but does not melt when heated. Flavored with zippy green chiles and refreshing epazote herbs. Hand-formed discs. .60 lb pieces.

3rd Place - Queso Oaxaca Mexican Mozzarella A traditional Mexican cheese that is hand-stretched into long ribbons of string cheese and then rolled up like a ball of yarn. Mild flavor. Can be torn into strands. .50 lb balls.

3rd Place - Deep Ellum Blue An earthy and complex cheese with a moldy blue exterior. Robust flavor and creamy, supple texture. "A blue cheese for people who don't like blue cheese." Aged at least 6 weeks. .50 lb pieces.
