THE SATAKIELI SERIES CELEBRATES THE RICHLY COMPLEX AND VERSATILE CHARACTERISTICS OF CIDER. EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED. ‘SATAKIELI’ IS THE FINNISH WORD FOR NIGHTINGALE. IT LITERALLY TRANSLATES AS ‘ONE HUNDRED TONGUES’, WHICH PERFECTLY DESCRIBES THE BEAUTIFUL AND DIVERSE SONG OF OUR NAMESAKE SONG BIRD. SATAKIELI NO.1 IS A STILL, DRY AND MYSTERIOUS CIDER. THE DISTINCT AROMA OF DISCOVERY APPLES LEADS, FOLLOWED BY THE WINE-LIKE EMBRACE OF EGREMONT RUSSET AND BRAMLEY. IT FINISHES WITH GORGEOUS SMOKINESS AND UMAMI, COURTESY OF THE HUMBLE CRAB APPLE. THIS IS A CIDER TO SAVOUR, TO ENJOY AROUND A WOOD FIRE ON A CHILLY WINTER’S NIGHT, YET CAN EQUALLY STAND UP TO A ROAST. SERVE AT CELLAR TEMPERATURE.

A Case of Medium Sweet Blush Cider

This cider is one of our refreshing summer fruit ciders – a lighter alternative to classic cider. We like to call this our 'Cider with Elderflower' rather than 'Elderflower Cider' because we want the apples to play an important part in what makes this cider taste as good as it does. The end result is a cider that is equally well-balanced with both aromatic elderflower and flavourful Somerset apples. Available in 500ml bottles, and like all of our ciders it has been fermented and matured naturally using wild yeasts. "Although Sheppy’s is all about traditional cider I knew that I had to keep up with the trends by producing a fruit cider. This cider is produced to a medium taste and I make sure I keep it as natural as possible. It’s as close to a traditional flavoured cider as you’re going to find."  

PULP Rhubarb 4% 24 x 330ml Cans

Please your palate! This refreshing blend of Yorkshire Triangle Timperley Rhubarb Juice and our medium craft cider is a winning combination. The subtle tart of rhubarb juice gives it a wonderfully refreshing bite. 🍏 Core blimey! 🍏

Slack Alice 4.6% 20L BIB (35 Pints)

We have captured summer in a bottle with our Cider with Raspberry. It’s light and refreshing with not an artificial flavour in sight. Blended at home on the farm using a light, but traditional cider apple blend and pure raspberry juice, you will still know you are drinking cider. Not too sweet, and with a manageable ABV, this is perfect for a summer’s day. Like all of our ciders it has been fermented and matured naturally. For over 200 years the skill and craftsmanship of classic Somerset cider-making has been passed down through six generations of Sheppys.
