Shaftesbury-based chef and food writer Philippa Davis celebrates the wonderful food and drink of Dorset in a new six-part television series on Prime Video. In the food and travel programmes, A Taste of Dorset, Philippa explores this beautiful county and meets some of the outstanding producers who have made Dorset one of the country’s most exciting food destinations. Viewers can follow Philippa across the county as she meets three very different producers in each 25-minute episode. They range from fifth-generation millers to first-time wine-makers and from oyster farmers to apple vodka distillers. We hear about their stories and their products and find out why they feel so deeply connected to Dorset and its community. Discovering, tasting and gathering ingredients as she goes, with her boundless energy and engaging enthusiasm, Philippa allows viewers to discover the magic, warmth and richness of Dorset’s people, places and producers.
The producers visited in A Taste of Dorset are:
Episode 1 – Famous Hedgehog Bakery (now closed), Ajar Of, Hazelbury Bryan, and Liberty Fields at Halstock
Episode 2 – The Dorset Dairy Co at Stalbridge, Breezy Ridge Vineyard at West Melbury, Baboo Gelato, Weymouth, and Hollis Mead at Beaminster

She says: ‘I’m incredibly excited to support and champion the outstanding food and drink producers we have here in Dorset. It feels vital, now more than ever, to connect our wonderful farmers and makers to consumers in order to share their stories and the work they do.’
Tony Hindhaugh, executive director of production company Planet Eat Media, says: ‘I was bowled over by the friendliness and passion of every single producer we visited. Dorset is an utterly delicious county and we are delighted to help showcase the marvellous food and drink scene there.’
