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.
