A guided tour of Hepple Estate is a magical and most memorable experience. Come rain or shine there is much to see, learn and enjoy – and let’s face it there is no such thing as bad weather when you’re wearing the right clothing.
Explore Hepple Wilds and experience the untamed, raw and rugged beauty of the Northumberland National Park. Learn how Hepple uses natural processes and a light-touch management to create a ecologically biodiverse landscape. Hepple have embraced ‘managed wilding’ to create a food chain that supports diverse vegetation and the insect population to host some wonderful charismatic and rare species, providing the environment for them to breed naturally.
Hepple Wilds is home to the ancient juniper grove and the botanicals – Hawthorn, Douglas Fir, Lovage, Bog Myrtle and Blackcurrant leaves used to create Hepple Spirits.
You’ll learn how Hepple Spirits uses a triple distillation method making it one of the most innovative distilleries in the UK. It is difficult to believe that such a small distillery produces so much to supply private outlets across the world.
