A Trip to Cheddar

Today I've been lucky enough to be out and about meeting some of our lovely customers in Cheddar Gorge. It's a beautiful part of the country and it's on our doorstep.  The Original Cheddar Cheese Company is a family run business offering lovely cheeses and carefully selected local produce. We consider ourselves incredibly lucky to be stocked in their shop! They've also included our Star Gift Bottles in their gorgeous hampers they have created. It really is a glorious place to visit, with mountain goats, cliffs and caves to explore. Unfortunately my photography (non) expertise doesn't spread to the mountain goats....

A Successful and Cheesy Weekend

This weekend we were lucky enough to have stalls at both Frome Cheese Show and Sturminster Cheese Show. Both events give us a great opportunity to showcase our fantastic range of delicious liqueurs, and also gives you guys the chance to sample these delights, obligation free!! Win win situation.

21st June saw the official start of the Summer, and what a glorious week it has been so far. Blue skies and blazing Sun a plenty.

A short, sweet lesson in Science...

A short, sweet lesson in Science...

Whether you're an earth loving, soul searching, thing of nature, or just your general Joe Bloggs; you're more than likely aware of the significance of the Summer Solstice. Scientifically this is where The Sun reaches the highest point in the sky, blah blah blah.....and in layman's terms, means we will see the longest daylight hours!!! I, for one, am all for a longer day of sunshine. I personally won't be heading to Stonehenge to celebrate (maybe one year), but I do plan to spend the evening in my garden, relaxing with a nice tall glass of Raspberry Mint Liqueur, simply...
