This competition holds a special place in the hearts and minds of the country's top dairy breeders.
Sponsored by Diageo and its cream supplier Glanbia Ireland it has become the most sought-after title within dairy breeding circles on the island of Ireland.
Diageo Ireland exports 1 billion euros worth of produce from Ireland to 150 countries and is one of the country’s best-performing food & drink exporters. The event exemplifies the successful supply chain partnership behind Baileys and acts as a reminder of Diageo's contribution to the agri-economy in Ireland as a major purchaser of Irish raw ingredients for Baileys as well as Guinness.
