Cheesemonger’s Choice – March Enjoy 10% off in the Farm Shop

For March, we’ve chosen Alp Blossom as our cheesemonger’s pick because it’s one of those cheeses that stops people mid-bite

This beautiful Alpine-style cheese is made from rich cow’s milk and gently matured with a fragrant coating of alpine flowers and herbs. The result? A smooth, creamy centre with a subtle floral aroma and a nutty, savoury depth that keeps you coming back for more.

It pairs perfectly with our Sheppy cider – the gentle and fresh apple acidity of cider cuts through the creaminess of the cheese, while the herbal notes in the rind echo those classic orchard flavours. It’s an easy, elegant match that just works.

Get 10% off Alp Blossom in our farm shop this month and treat yourself to a pairing we genuinely love.

Trust us – cider and cheese don’t get much better than this.

Heritage

At Sheppy's it is important for us to know about our cheesemakers, who they are, their history, their story and their processes so there is a direct connection from them to you.

At our core is a selection of some of the most inspiring and exciting raw milk and pasteurised cheeses currently being made. We supply cheese made from cow, goat and sheep milk, traditional animal rennet and many vegetarian varieties. We have a range of blues, washed rinds, fresh yoghurty cheeses, young curds, soft unctuous cheeses and traditional hearty regional cheeses.

Celebrate your special occasion with cheese cake

Decorated with seasonal flowers and fruit each one is unique to your occasion.

Values aligned

Cider comes from the land, the flavour comes from the earth and the orchard where the fruit is grown. Cheese is no different, its complexity is created by the milk, the animals and the pastures themselves. Both products rely on the terrain, soil and climate of a region for their products to flourish.

We work with cheesemakers that value the quality of what they produce and whose practices sustain our environment and cultural heritage. They produce food with a story - a provenance and place.
