It’s our first episode of 2024, so we’re giving a respectful nod to those going dry as well as those who are resolving to continue drinking alcohol – only better.
Our two product reviews are a case in point: First we go all regal and head over to Highclerc Castle where they make a gin based around 10 botanicals found in the castle’s Victorian orangery and monk’s garden, then we pop the cork and bust out a fabulous alternative to Champagne and sparkling wine – REAL Peony Blush fermented tea.
John deBary’s ‘Drink What You Want’ is our book choice for anyone looking for inspiring drinks suggestions of the no/low or alcoholic varieties, ditto our bar pick which is the marvellous Nipperkin, a bijoux venue celebrating the best of British in the heart of Mayfair.
