Spenwood cheese is wonderful hard ewe's milk cheese which is vegetarian. Spenwood is full of nutty flavour and nice and firm as it is made by being pressed by Village Maid in Reading. I like to think of it as half way between a Cheddar style and a Manchego with slightly sweet notes and its great for cooking with (grate it on your pasta, lovely!). Matured for 9 months its made with vegetarian rennet.
Milk Type : Sheep's Milk
Pasteurisation : Pasteurised

Great cheese full of flavour and good texture
My wife and I have tried Spenwood on a couple of occasions now and have decided we prefer it to something like a goats cheese. Its subtle nutty flavour goes well with other milder cheeses on a cheese board. I can recommend this.
Had this at our archaeology works Christmas do and it was a big winner. Chose this as the English Heritage website suggested it would be similar to a cheese from the Roman period.
My son and his girlfriend found this cheese at a specialist cheese counter. I ordered more online from you because it was so tasty, versatile and had a good layering of flavours and great texture as it is, or for cooking, grating, etc. We will be back for more. Naturally, we will try some other cheeses from you too!
The right balance of softness and zing, good texture (not too hard, not too soft) fresh yet deep taste, ages well
