ROYAL MASH VODKA Royal Mash creates its renowned vodka using oversize Jersey Royal potatoes; reducing unavoidable waste from agriculture and producing something amazing in the process of doing so. Single distilled in annual vintages by hand in 200 litre copper stills, the Jersey Royals are grown just like grapes with the terroir effecting each annual harvest. The team never blend the vintages, there is no NV there - it is vintage only at Royal Mash HQ! £58.99, royalmash.com SHAR PHAM P LOUGHMAN’ S CHUTNEY WI TH BAYS DEVON DUMP L I NG AL E From Sharpham Dairy in South Devon, this traditional ploughman’s chutney features chunky vegetables, raisins and dates. For good measure there’s a good glug of Bay’s Brewery Devon Dumpling Ale in there too - a rich, mellow traditional ale with a real depth of flavour. Naturally, this chutney pairs perfectly with cheese, as you would expect from one created by an artisan cheese dairy, but equally so with cold meats and pork pies. In particular, it complements the rich creaminess of the dairy’s signature Sharpham Brie. £4.50, sharphamcheese.co.uk S I LVE R C I RC L E ’ S THE ULT IMAT E B LOODY MARY Say hello to The Ultimate Bloody Mary, a rich, spicy take on the classic cocktail that might just be the best bloody Mary you’ve ever tasted!
