Three Counties Cider And Perry Association

Description

The purpose of the Three Counties Cider and Perry Association (TCCPA) is to represent, support and promote the interests of cider and perry producers, primarily based in the Three Counties region of the UK (Herefordshire, Gloucestershire and Worcestershire), but with a further focus on nationwide subjects such as duty reform and promotion of orchards.
The TCCPA was founded in 1993 by a group of craft scale cider makers who came together at the cider and perry trials run by the ‘The Big Apple’ at Putley in Herefordshire. Their intention was to improve the image and quality of farmhouse cider and perry.
From those early beginnings, membership has now grown significantly, with members being based not only within the Three Counties region, but from as far afield as Hampshire, North Wales and Dumfries & Galloway.
Today membership is open to any cider or perrymaker or enthusiast, whether making for sale or as a hobby, involved in related businesses, or simply interested in the subject.
