Ramsbury Gin is a rare thing, one of the few single estate gins made in the UK. Ramsbury believe that you can't make great gin without first making great vodka. Ramsbury Gin starts its journey on the estate as Horatio wheat. It is then distilled through their 43 plate copper still, creating a base spirit that gives the gin an incredibly smooth texture.  

Floral tones and crisp quince fades into more savoury juniper, with a refreshing finish and a touch of spice. Smoothness abounds and this single estate spirit sits at the sweeter end of London Dry Gin.

Taste a piece of history! Revived by the great-great-grandson of the original James eadie, this blend brings together the single malts of the range into a wonderfully full and expressive whisky that surpasses the sum of its parts. Regular award winner.

Nose: Raisins drizzled with spiced rum and Sherry, a hint of grassy peat, oily walnut.

Palate: Mexican chocolate, ripe red berries, brown sugar, another waft of soft peat smoke.

Finish: Juicy apricot and pear notes last on the finish.

A much overlooked category, Manzanilla sherry has so much to offer and is the perfect aperitif. Totally bone dry, with its distinctive savoury character of green olive, salted almonds, seaside freshness and tang; in fact, the perfect partner to all those things, whether or not you have a beachside seat.

One of the UK's only single estate English vodkas, Ramsbury Vodka is distilled, blended and bottled in a historic Wiltshire countryside belonging to the renowned Ramsbury Estate. An ancient aquifer influences the locally sourced wheat and water to create an enigmatic and refined edition.

Each bottle possesses a distinguished aesthetic and takes effort to note the provenance and variety of the wheat used. A very dignified affair.

BOTANICALS

''We work with nine carefully chosen ingredients, each lending their own individual characteristics, and all sourced with our usual attention to detail.

Sugar Kelp plays the starring role, bringing a complex, maritime edge to proceedings and we work with local diver and seaweed expert Lewis Mackenzie to gather this magical seaweed from our local sea-lochs in a sustainable harvest.

Lewis picks the gold-green fronds from hidden underwater forests by hand in the springtime before taking them to be dried locally.

When there is no 'r' in the month, the kelp is left to recover and grow, ensuring this vital local habitat for sealife is not harmed.''

HOW ITS MADE

''We make every drop of our award-winning Isle of Harris Gin here in the small village of Tarbert.

Our local distillers create this first offering from our island distillery in a small copper gin still which sits alongside her larger whisky-making sisters in the distillery's bright Spirit Hall.

We've nicknamed our gin still 'The Dotach' in honour of a similarly small and feisty local woman who is fondly remembered here in Harris from days gone by.

We use Sugar Kelp seaweed, gathered sustainably by hand from local sea-lochs, as our key botanical to express our island's unique maritime nature.

The spirit is softened by the fresh, low-mineral rainwaters which flow from the nearby source stream of Abhainn Cnoc a ’Charrain.

We bottle Isle of Harris Gin by hand here at the distillery too, before applying the labels and closing each one with a natural cork and wood stopper.

Finally, we apply a paper seal bearing our distillery's geographical coordinates to every single bottle by hand, your guarantee of a truly Outer Hebridean gin, made in the Isle of Harris and nowhere else.''

Angostura Bitters was created in 1824 as a medicine, but as people kept taking it, they became intoxicated with its unique flavour and aroma. Now you will be able to find it behind almost every bar in the world, as it is an essential for many cocktails. Essential in an Old fashioned. Product of Trnidad & Tobago.

Traditionally described as the 'Rolls Royce of Gins', the use of cassia bark, cinnamon and liquorice adds to Tanqueray's much-vaunted dryness. Complexity and smoothness are the results of undergoing four distillations.

One of the lighter, most elegant whiskies making this a good blend from the top draw. There are some unmistakable notes of toffee-apple, peat and oak.

A family business since 1702.

This VSOP remained on average 7 years in barrels in the humid cellars of Segonzac. Pablo (the Grandson of Pierre) waited patiently, letting the air and wood work. With a beautiful golden yellow colour, it rewards the time to let your glass air a few minutes before enjoying it. 

On the nose, the alcohol is discreet and gives way to  light  notes of apricot fruit, sultana, baking spice and polished wood. Older than a classic VSOP, on the palate, it retains vigour and volume, aromas of vanilla, honey and cedar. Rich and mellow with hints of cinnamon and spices. A connoisseur Cognac to be savoured.

Domaine L’Ancienne Cure Jour de Fruit Monbazillac  is a wonderfully rich sweet wine made from low yields of late-harvested, botrytised, Semillon (90%) and Muscadelle (10%).  It has flavours of marzipan, orange peel and spices. Christian Roche has emerged in the last five years as one of the best growers in this appellation. A wonderful alternative to Sauternes, and better for youthful drinking.

Best drunk as an apéritif (with Roquefort), with foie-gras, melon, or with cakes and desserts.

37.5cl bottle.

A bitter aperitif for use in cocktails such as a Negroni, Boulevardier, Old Pal or Americano that will also work well in a spritz with wine and soda.

What a discovery! An iconic Gin distilled in London for legendary bar Cafe del Mar in Ibiza. The bar is on the western shore of the island and as such the perfect spot to watch the sunset - whilst sipping on a G&T. Relive your summer holiday with a bottle of our new favourite Gin.

A wonderful Fino Sherry from the Solera Familiar range at Lustau. The nose is laced with scents of the sea and profound "flor" aromas. Clean and fresh, with a slight taste of tangy yeast. While most Fino Sherry is aged in Jerez, the Fino Del Puerto is aged in the cool and humid air of El Puerto de Santa Maria.

Emilio Lustau has a long history of sherry production dating back to 1896 and is the only winery in the Sherry Triangle that produces wine in its three main towns: Jerez de la Frontera, El Puerto de Santa María and Sanlúcar de Barrameda. Year in and year out, these Sherries receive high plaudits from critics and awarding bodies alike. The current cellar master has won 'Best Fortified Wine Maker' by the IWC for the last three years in a row.

Totally unique to St. George’s Distillery. A local farming estate has been making their own Nog for generations, and very kindly allowed the distillery to borrow/steal the recipe. This is a very alcoholic cream and is best drunk in moderation. A very simple drink consisting of our Single Malt Whisky & cream. We think best served outdoors on a cold and blustery day. Perfect for long walks or a day fishing, or if you are not one to brave the elements, add some ice, a comfy chair and a log fire. Either way you are going to love this Nog.

Winner of the hugely prestigious The Whisky Exchange Spirit of the Year 2017. Organic blood orange, flowers, spice, berries, pine, drying resins and sweetness fill the mouth. Rich and unbelievably complex, it transcends expectations of a gin. 50cl

A rather excellent gin here all the way from Lebanon, created by Faouzi Issa from the Domaine des Tourelles winery. It's made with a delicious selection of 14 botanicals, including a base of juniper and coriander, plus a whole host of ingredients sourced from Lebanon. Rose petals, pomegranate seeds, citruses, spices, and more all feature in this expression, distilled in a 400-litre copper still, with some specially selected ones up in a basket to allow for a delicate flavour extraction. After distillation, the spirit is rested in amphora jars for six months, helping to round out the gin's flavour profile and mouth feel.

Heidi Schröck took over her family winery in 1983, in the historic village of Rust situated in the province of Burgenland about 5 miles from the Hungarian border. As Heidi explains “South-facing vineyards in a softly rolling landscape form an amphitheater around Rust on Lake Neusiedl bringing forth some of the best and most tradition-rich wines in Austria. Yearly hours of sunshine that lie much higher than the Austrian average combined with sandy soils mixed with clay and high calcium content provide the ideal prerequisites for impressive, full-bodied wines.

Medium sweet with rich, ripe stone fruit, green mango, and waxy-honeyed tones but with a refreshing seam of acidity that makes the wine buoyant and light. So much complexity here, and so much quality.

Taylor’s Historical Collection is a series of limited editions that pay homage to the changing shape of Port bottles since the early 18th Century. The first release was a charmingly dumpy bottle lovingly named “The Onion”, the second was a flatter flagon and a bestseller at Harvey Nichols called “The Chestnut”, and the latest is “The Mallet”. This striking shape had become well established in the UK by the 1730s and shows the progression from the globular bottle (that didn’t allow cellar ageing) towards the more modern cylindrical style we’re familiar with today.

This is an exceptional Tawny Port that is ready to drink and requires no decanting. A blend of carefully curated Ports from Taylor’s extensive Tawny stocks stored at Vila Nova de Gaia, all of which have been matured for long periods in wooden barrels imparting deep, nutty flavours. The result is very Christmassy, displaying plum, fig, sultana, raisin and marzipan notes, alongside leather, coffee, butterscotch, cigar box, and woody spices. We recommend serving at around 12-16°C with a cheeseboard, dark chocolate-based desserts, or festive fare such as Christmas cake, figgy pudding, stollen and mince pies.

Taylor’s hold the Royal Warrant as one of the Suppliers of Port Wine to Her Majesty The Queen. Although steeped in history as you would expect of a family-run business established in 1692, the forward-thinkers at Taylor’s are also committed to sustainable viticulture and have installed solar panels on three of their properties.

You’re probably wondering what Floc is! It’s a very delicious aperitif made with two thirds crushed grape juice and a third Armagnac. From esteemed Armagnac producer, Veuve Goudoulin. Floc is best served chilled or served over ice which makes it a great sunny weather drink!

Fresh and enjoyable with aromas and flavours of white grapes, dried fruits and acacia honey.

Made to an original Latvian recipe, Kummel Mentzendorff is a classic caraway-based liqueur now produced in France by the Loire's famous Combier distillery. Serve chilled to within an inch of its life after a hearty meal.

A blend of long-aged XO Grande Champagne Cognacs, Delamain Pale & Dry benefits from a lengthy two-year marriage period in cask after assemblage before being bottled, resulting in a beautifully smooth roundness and flavour integration on the palate.

Aniseed, figs, apricot, cherry and honeysuckle combine in a smooth and extremely elegant cognac. Nothing less than we'd expect from this house.

A historic vermouth brand, Dolin has been made to the same recipe in the Alpine hills around Chambéry since 1821, and was awarded the only Appellation d'Origine for vermouth in 1932. The style is on the lighter and drier side, being sugared to around 130g/l.Sprightly and clean, with aromas of almonds, orange peel and a touch of wax.

Intensely fruity blackcurrant liqueur, not too sweet. made in Herefordshire. A powerful yet surprisingly fresh liqueur that is perfect for the British version of a Kir Royale.

Our favourite Gin discovered on holiday at St Mary's on the Isles of Scilly. Lovely balance of piney juniper, piquancy of cardamon, with a hint of orange, herbal lime leaf and warm familiar notes of cassia. Serve a large measure of Island Gin over ice, garnished with a fresh kaffir leaf and a dried orange slice, with two measures of tonic.

You may need a bigger hip flask! This is not your average sloe gin. This is a stronger and more muscular take on the style, so only a magnum will contain all those powerful fruit and botanical flavours. Paler in colour than many sloe gins on the market, this has an enticing nose of juniper leading into a full-on palate of rich, sweet plums. Its long, lingering finish is refreshing and will have you coming back for another sip.

An artisinal mezcal from Ojo de Dios (which translates at 'God’s eye'), produced from Espadin agave. This here is a Joven bottling, so after the agave is roasted for around 10 days and double distilled, it's bottled up without any ageing, packed full of fresh fruit, grassy agave and fragrant smoke.

One of the best Vodkas in Europe at the moment with a release of just 4,000 bottles per year. Complex and dense body; starts with soft sweet winter wheat followed by a nutty note and finally a complex dryness that flaunts the rye with a peppery note on the end.

The Mikolasch brand's roots date back to 1842, and now it's been revived to ensure we can all enjoy its quality spirit. This organic vodka is produced from corn grown on a single farm in Ukraine and pure local well water.

Odd Café, the dark side of Ojo de Dios, brings a harmonious blend of the original Espadin Mezcal together with Oaxacan mountain grown Arabica coffee. This high alcohol, but low sugar coffee liqueur is strongly aromatic with fresh agave giving way to bitter, just brewed coffee and subtle sweet undertones. Abundant notes of espresso with rich dark chocolate, smoked cinnamon and liquorice harmonise on the tastebuds with an elegant, velvety and butterscotch finish. If you’re a fan of espresso martinis, then you’ll adore this smoky expression.  

Francisco Ortiz is a third-generation, award-winning Mezcal producer running Ojo De Dios, where modern, artisanal mezcal is crafted with passion and innovation, in the heart of Oaxaca, Mexico. The award-winning Espadin is the perfect introduction to the world of mezcal and alongside the Odd Café and Odd Hibiscus, we can see how this exciting brand is continuing to move forwards, pushing the boundaries of expected innovation. 

British-born, Indian-inspired Desi Daru's aptly-named No.1 Vodka has been lovingly made with English winter wheat and refined Himalayan water distilled seven times for ultimate purity. The result is a meeting of East and West; bold yet subtle, rich and clean in flavour.

A Chilean Pisco made from Muscat grapes, resulting in an aromatic, floral and well-rounded spirit, sure to go handsomely in a Pisco Sour. The name, El Gobernador, means "the Governor" in Spanish. The heavily-moustached chap on the label certainly looks like someone you'd refer to as "Governor".

A premium gin, Citadelle was originally developed in a Dunkirk distillery in the late 18th Century, and at the time Dunkirk was one of the earliest European ports for explorers of the Orient, who brought back herbs and spices from the Far East. The result is a fabulous gin made with 19 different botanicals including Moroccan Coriander, French Juniper, Mexican Orange Peel and Chinese Liquorice.

Lágrima (meaning 'tears') is the sweetest style of white Port. An intense yet elegant sweet wine with notes of caramel, honey, and nut - all balanced by fresh acidity and leading to a long and appealing finish. The grapes are grown on the schistous soils of the Douro region. Vinification is in closed fermentation tanks, which is interrupted through the addition of grape brandy to preserve a high degree of natural sweetness. The wine is then aged in wood in Wiese & Krohn's cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia.

Drink chilled as an aperitif, or with fruity desserts. It has been filtered, so won't need decanting - once opened it should 'keep' and be enjoyable for a few weeks.

Unusually for a gin these days, the base spirit is produced from grapes (rather than grain) which was traditionally used in juniper spirits in the 14th century.Sing Gin hails from Yorkshire, aiming to capture the spirit of the Yorkshire Dales in a bottle. It's named after Kettlesing, the village where the family behind the gin live. The seven hand-crushed botanicals include juniper, mint, orange peel and, rather unusually, flax, which was chosen for its historical significance as an old Yorkshire crop.  A smooth gin which manages to balance historical and contemporary components.

Plenty of rich black fruits here with hints of spice and dark chocolate. The palate mirrors the nose but adds a fresh dark raspberry fruit character. The finish is fresh inviting you back for another glass!

Lillet Blanc is made from white wine and is drier than Lillet Rouge, its red-wine counterpart. Both are classically served over ice with an orange twist.

Lillet is a blend of rigorously selected wines and fruit liqueurs, aged in oak vats for around 12 months, during which it is given the same care as the Grands Crus (great wines) of Bordeaux.

Lillet Blanc has a golden colour with candied orange, honey, pine resin, lime and fresh mint aromas. Full and rich on the palate with a lovely, long aftertaste. Always serve well chilled in a Bordeaux wine glass... zest with a slice of orange or lime. Perfect with snacks and desserts!

Lillet blanc is the key ingredient in James Bond's Martini derivative, the Vesper, a drink created in deference to the beautiful double agent in Ian Fleming's Casino Royale and reffered to as Kina Lillet.
