Great Taste Awards 2024

Dunbia are delighted to announce that our West Country Choice PGI Lamb Chump Joint has earned the top honour of 3-stars at this year’s Great Taste Awards.

We are thrilled to have received recognition at the Great Taste Awards 2024 for the exceptional quality of our beef and lamb products across our various premium brands.

Judged and extensively blind tasted by esteemed food critics, chefs, cooks, restaurateurs, buyers, retailers, producers, and food writers and journalists, Great Taste is the most prestigious food and drink award. Winning a 3-star award at this esteemed event reaffirms the superior quality of our naturally produced, grass-fed beef and lamb.

Great Taste Judges comments on our 3-star award winning West Country Choice PGI Lamb Chump Joint included:

“This is lamb as it should taste. Faultless.”

“This neat and well-prepared joint has a decent layer of fat. It is extremely tender, both to cut and on the palate. It melts in the mouth. Gosh what flavours – buttery, nutty, herbal, grassy, toasty, hay-like … we could go on. Delicious..”
