Rich Guernsey Milk Waterloo Cheese
Waterloo is rich and not too powerful. It has a mildly salty flavour balanced by its lactic centre. It's an attractive and unique cheese for your cheeseboard with its white rind contrasting with the deep cream-coloured paste.
Waterloo is made, along with Wigmore and Spenwood, by Anne and Andy Wigmore of Village Maid Cheese near Berkshire. Having spent ten years working for the National Institute for Research in Dairying where her work involved microbiology and cheese making, Anne was inspired in 1986 to set up her own company to make artisan cheese.
Between her leaving the Dairy Institute and setting up on her own, Anne and her husband Andy took time out to sail a yacht to Australia, an experience which provided yet more inspiration for Anne's project, as it exposed the couple to some wonderful cheeses, including the beautiful ewe's milk cheeses of Sardinia.
