"Hello Ewe" is made by husband and wife team, Tim Homewood and Angela Morris. Tim originally learned to make cheese with Peter Humphries at White Lake Cheese, but decided in 2008 to set up business with his fiancé Angela.
In order to make a new start, they decided to concentrate on ewes’ milk cheeses rather than the goats’ and cows’ milk cheeses that Tim had made before. Ewe’s milk has the advantage of giving a higher yield when transformed into cheese. Although this was originally perhaps more of a commercial decision, the pair have fallen in love with the delicate and sweet ewes’ milk, and are now delighted to make cheese only from this milk.
Tim and Angela use a Halloumi recipe to make this cheese. Once the curd has been set, cut, moulded, pressed and turned, it is then added back to the whey which has already been boiled and skimmed (ricotta is formed as a by product of the skimming). The cheese is scalded in the hot whey until it rises to the surface, letting Tim know that it is ready.
This Somerset cheese is a truly hand-made product, and is a million miles away from the mass-produced Halloumi that are more readily available.

We select and mature traditionally-made artisan cheeses from independent producers who prioritise quality over profit.
For over thirty years we have nurtured and supported the cream of British cheesemakers, and we played an integral role in the revival of traditional British cheesemaking in the early 1990s.
We produce our own range of Partners for Cheese, and our cheese and partners are supplied to hundreds of UK retailers and exported to over 50 countries world-wide.
We were founded in 1990 by Ann-Marie Dyas, a renowned judge at both the British and World Cheese Awards and winner of the Guild of Fine Food Lifetime Achievement Award. Ann-Marie was committed to the survival and growth of traditional cheesemaking and to introducing and sharing farmhouse cheeses, as well as the stories behind them, to as wide a public as possible.
Ann-Marie's mission was "To seek out the best, and, when it’s been found, to keep looking". This same tireless pursuit of excellence is the core value across the company.
From the producers we choose to work with to the coffee we serve in our café, we want to give the best possible experience, while continuing to find ways to improve upon it.
