Long Meadow Cider is part of the farm that has been worked and owned by the McKeever family for three generations. Through their stewardship, they have focused on Bramley apple production, with each generation of the family passing on different methods and traditions to the next.Their award-winning products of cider, apple juice and vinegar are naturally pressed and fermented.
Wine V Cider will encourage you to challenge your palate.Wine paired with food is an obvious choice, however the McKeever family think that their Long Meadow ciders can stand up to the challenge.Pat McKeever will use all his experience and cider know-how to go head-to-head with our guest wine maker.
The rationale for pairing the selected ciders and wines will be explained by both Pat and our guest wine maker for each of the specially curated food courses – these have been prepared by chef Barry Smyth from The Flavoursmyth.Ultimately you will decide whether the cider or wine matches each course.The evening will be hosted by renowned food journalist and culinary expert Joris Minne. The five-course menu will be accompanied at each course with a glass of wine and a glass of cider, all of which is included in your ticket price. Musical accompaniment will enhance this lovely event.
