rum

Not only the food you consume can be organic but the drink you enjoy can be organic too. There are a few myths and misconceptions surrounding the organic spirit including the dreaded hangover. It is important to start looking towards more sustainable and environmentally friendly practices of farming, eating and our general lifestyle. So in this week’s blog we will help clear up any preconceived ideas you may have.

You may have noticed the bottles in the shop looking tall and magnificent like towering skyscrapers. Once the wax seal is cracked the spirit that embraces you is tantalising and smooth with the delightful caress of aromas and flavours. A spirit made from a sweet potato you may ask? In this week’s blog we meet Garry Smith the Founding Director to discover more.

For those longing for something different we have launched our drinks subscription. Our in-house drinks expert, Peter, will research and work with like minded producers each month to source drinks you will love! These little gifts to yourself will turn up at the door ready for you to enjoy. Not only will you receive the bottle of the month, mixers and the perfect garnish, you will also get a delicious hand picked snack from a local producer!

On the 29th January you may have seen that we have an exciting tasting with local artisan rum producer Burning Barn. To get me even more excited, and gain a bit more knowledge about this interesting drink I'm exploring the history in this week’s blog.
