@RutlandArmsChef You'll be missed! Still remember the Bodegas Tradicion sherry event we did. Your blue cheese in a Yorkshire pudding with wild lavender paired with their 20yo+ PX is still fondly remembered. They were at Gordon Ramsay the day before but your tasting menu blew them out the water!

@RutlandArmsChef The wines of Jousset (one of my all time favorites) along with 1006 and Pressoir are outstanding. There are also amazing troglodyte caves and impressive palaces to explore. Superb camping options available too.

@RutlandArmsChef If you clip the east of Normandy then the ciders and calvados of Pays d Auge are beautiful. Drouin will look after you. The wines of Loire are my favourite and Saumur is a great central town to head to. The chenin blanc of mid Loire are some of the most elegant and best value.

This photograph, captured at the turn of the 20th century, depicts Jack Daniel, recognizable in the white hat, seated alongside George Green, son of Nathan "Nearest" Green, the pioneering African American master distiller in the United States. For a long time, it was believed that Daniel had been taught the art of whiskey-making by a prosperous landowner and Lutheran preacher named Dan Call. However, it was actually Nathan Green who served as his true mentor, having been rented out by his owners to assist Call. Green took Daniel under his wing and continued working for his whiskey enterprise after the conclusion of the Civil War.
The significance of Green's role was an open secret, passed down through generations. After over 150 years, Brown-Forman, the company that owns Jack Daniel's, officially acknowledged Green as the first master distiller, with Jack himself being recognized as the second. While the history of American whiskey has predominantly revolved around Scottish-Irish and other European distilling traditions, it's crucial to acknowledge the substantial involvement of enslaved individuals in the distillation process. They not only provided physical labor but also possessed extensive knowledge of alcohol production techniques originating from West Africa.
Nathan Green's contribution is now formally acknowledged on the official Jack Daniel's website and highlighted during distillery tours in Lynchburg, Tennessee. Interestingly, the distillery itself is situated in a dry county where the sale of liquor is prohibited. To circumvent this restriction, they legally sell commemorative Jack Daniel's bottles that coincidentally contain whiskey.

This is what our government directly taxes you, the consumer, on every bottle you purchase. We have one of the highest duty rates in Europe when it comes to taxation on wine and from August 1st its set to increase by 20% on a bottle of wine.

@Jim_Rangeley @Laphroaig I reckon you could go one extra and add coconut into that to make it a smoky pina colada! Going to be doing little else today than working on this.

@leeryan1066 @SpiritAndWood @SpiritYorkshire Hi Lee, We have the majority of their bottles in stock and should have a couple of new ones on our online shop soon. Recommend the Flagship as a starter to the range.

@SpiritAndWood @SpiritYorkshire Just had a look but 90% of the whisky is sold out according to the shop so pretty pointless as doesnt leave much choice if buying multiple bottles
