At the 2008 World Cheese Awards, Tenerife, the largest of the Canary Islands, took home the honor for the best cheese. The winning cheese was Queso Arico curado pimento, a cured goat cheese with paprika, roasted maize meal and sugar. This particular cheese has been made for years in Tenerife, passing from generation to generation. It was produced by the Sociedad Canaria de Formento (a co-operative of 50 cheese makers based in the Canary Islands, dotted around the map of Tenerife and the other islands). The winning cheese was one of 12 from the Canary Islands to garner an award at the show. The festival, which began 20 years ago, was held in Dublin, Ireland. This marked the first time it was held somewhere other than the U.K. More than 2,000 cheeses were on display and competing for the title of "Best Cheese in the World." Thousands of entrants from across the globe participated in the
