Over more than 200 years of making real premium craft cider, six generations of the Sheppy family have weathered the ups and downs of combining farming with cider-making by embracing change and opportunity. As part of British Cider Week – a new initiative led by the National Association of Cider Makers (NACM) which is a campaign designed to encourage consumers to explore the diversity of ciders produced in the UK – David Sheppy is inviting guests to join him on a guided tour and tasting on the cider farm. During the tour you will visit to our orchards, before showing you one of our vat houses, and then our press house. Your tour will finish off with a fully tutored tasting of a selection of Sheppy’s award winning Somerset ciders chosen by David. The evening will continue with a ploughman’s style meal where you will join David and Louisa Sheppy, ending the evening with a Q&A session asking David questions about his time in the cider business.
