DŽIUGIADIENIS
DŽIUGIADIENIS – is a commemoration of the name DŽIUGAS and an evaluation of the cheese by independent members. This day is associated with the beginning of the production of DŽIUGAS cheese. We start producing hard cheese DŽIUGAS in the spring, when the grazing period of cows begins. DŽIUGAS is made from the best quality milk from healthy cows that graze in the meadows during the spring-summer season.
We invite you to participate in the 19th „DŽIUGIADIENIS“, a celebration of cheese evaluation and certification.
Evaluation
Together we will all evaluate the 12, 24, 36 and 48 month maturity of the DŽIUGAS® cheese.
We will send you all these samples of mature cheeses for tasting and evaluation before the event. Samples taken from randomly selected different maturity cheeses will be packed and labeled. We will taste them during the evaluation process.
On a scale of 1 to 10, we will evaluate the properties of DŽIUGAS® cheese according to the following criteria:
Appearance
Color
Smell
Taste
Consistency
