Colorado Lamb vs. New Zealand Lamb

Most people who say they don't like lamb have obviously only had the kind from New Zealand.
If you ever have the opportunity to enjoy a good Colorado lamb roast, shank, rib, and it's properly prepared, it would be a revelation to you.  New Zealand lamb has a bit of a "gamey" taste to it.  A wild flavor that many who have tried lamb dislike.  But not all lamb is created equal.  That which is raised in the lovely U.S. state of Colorado is sent to fine restaurants all over the world.  It's difficult to even get in Colorado.  The price is much higher for this lovely meat also.  But if you have the good fortune to find some, it is worth the extra cost.  Colorado lamb has a mild, savory flavor that is superb!  Add a red wine gravy that's been made with the juice of the lamb, and you have a winning combination.
