Brewer Shepherd Neame has refreshed the branding - and tweaked the flavour - of one of its ciders.

The Faversham firm launched Orchard View three years ago, and has now teamed up with Somerset's oldest family cider maker Sheppy's to give it a ravamp.

The changes include an update to its look and taste.

Shepherd Neame says the subtle changes to its colour, aroma and flavour will prove a hit with drinkers.

There's a new look to its bottle design too with a bolder colour scheme being rolled out, while its apple logo is retained.

Jonathan Neame , Shepherd Neame’s chief executive said: “We are delighted to announce our new partnership with Sheppy’s. We have combined our skills to produce a truly outstanding cider.”

Sheppy’s master of cider, David Sheppy, added: “We can’t wait for cider drinkers to get to try the new Orchard View blend, which we’ve worked with Shepherd Neame on for several months to perfect, and feel confident it will be very well received.”

The new Orchard View is available in 50l kegs now, and will be available in 500ml bottles from the end of September.
