Waterloo cheese is a mild, semi-soft cheese made by Anne and Andy Wigmore near Riseley, Berkshire in the United Kingdom. The cheese is made from unpasteurised Guernsey milk sourced from a farm near Henley. A full-fat cheese, it has a fat content of 45%.
Waterloo cheese is made using washed curd method, which tempers the acidity and contributes to a soft, gentle, buttery flavour. The characteristic yellow colour is due to the presence of natural carotene. The interiors have a creamy rich pate and a slightly firm and flaky centre. The affinage period is between 4 and 10 weeks.
Sarah Freedman, food writer and author of 'The Real Cheese Companion' has described Waterloo cheese as, “Waterloo is luscious and creamy with the sweetness of the rich milk and undertones of herbs and grass.”

Spenwood cheese comes from the United Kingdom. Produced in the region named 'Berkshire', the cheese is made using unpasteurised sheep milk. Established cheesemakers such as 'Village Maid Cheese' buy milk from highly selective farms instead of cultivating the grasslands for cattle or raising stock.
Spenwood, a cheese with caramel flavour and thin, grey and evenly distributed natural rind, tastes best at six months of ageing while at about 12 months of ageing, the flavours become concentrated, though the cheese becomes drier. The cheese is considered ideal for cooking when it comes to pasta with grated cheese!
