Three OSM Piątnica products recognised at Great Taste 2026

Three OSM Piątnica products have received stars at Great Taste 2026, the UK food and drink awards programme organised by the Guild of Fine Food. The award-winning productswere Piątnica High-Protein Raspberry Drinking Skyr and two products sold under the international Dairly brand: Dairly Cottage Cheese and Dairly Whipped Cream Cheese.

Warsaw - Piątnica High-Protein Raspberry Drinking Skyr and Dairly Cottage Cheese each received one star, while Dairly Whipped Cream Cheese was awarded two stars.

Piątnica High-Protein Raspberry Drinking Skyr achieved a particularly notable result, as it was the only skyr to receive a star at Great Taste 2026.

Products entered into Great Taste are assessed through blind tastings, without packaging or any information that could identify the brand. Taste is the main criterion, while the judges also consider aroma, texture, balance of flavours, the quality of the ingredients and the overall impression.

One star is awarded to products that deliver very good flavour. Two stars recognise products that stand out for their outstanding flavour, while three stars are reserved for products judged to be exceptional.

The judging panels include food and drink experts such as chefs, food critics, buyers, retailers and food producers. As the tastings are conducted blind, the results are based entirely on the qualities of the product rather than brand recognition or packaging.

The awards reflect OSM Piątnica’s consistent focus on milk quality, carefully selected ingredients, and the taste of its finished products. Particular recognition goes to Dairly Whipped Cream Cheese, which received two stars, a distinction reserved for products that clearly stand out in terms of flavour.
