Curling around the beautiful logo on every Rosemullion bottle are the evocative words ‘protectors and perfecters of the distillers’ craft’. Here is a Cornish producer who lives by his art, one of a small number of distilleries in the area who create their base spirit from scratch, using bespoke, hand-built copper stills. Each bottle of Cornish gin or rum is truly artisan, made with a passionate focus on flavour, quality, and authenticity. Since its birth in 2018, Rosemullion Distillery has been busy collecting awards and the list of accolades is both impressive and extensive: 2021 SIP California (11 medals) 2021 Spirits Business Rum & Cachaca (3 medals) 2020 Great British Food Awards (3 medals) 2020 World Rum (3 medals) 2020 SIP California (6 medals) 2020 San Francisco (6 medals) Whether it’s the addition of Cornish rainwater to the fermentation and distillation processes, the inclusion of local seasonal fruit or the sprinkle of Cornish sunshine, these beautiful bottles filled with spirit are spreading joy around the world. Reading through the reviews from the judges at these events, it's hard not to want to wrap your hands around a glass of rum or bury your nose into a tumbler full of gin. Put your feet up, pop another log on the fire, refill your glass and enjoy these excerpts below; Gold Rum

Mavis understood the principle of only ever using the finest ingredients and this is very much the cornerstone on which the Chapman business still operates. Today her sons Kevin and Paul continue with this philosophy using some of Mavis’s very own recipes and some new ones developed and added along the way, that she would have being very proud of. We still have the pick of fish from local suppliers, and we aim to source our ingredients from local producers.

Whatever your needs, Bumble Wrap has it well and truly covered! bumblewrap.co.uk info@bumblewrap.co.uk Look at this magnificent structure! This incredible thorn tower is the first and only tower to be built in the UK and the only thorn tower in the WORLD to produce salt! Blackthorn have revived the ancient Graduation Thorn Tower technique by gathering seawater, then letting it trickle gently down and through a large wall of thorns packed with bundles of blackthorn. These first stages rely only on the forces of nature; the sun, wind and sea. Unlike any other salt, the Blackthorn Salt flavour profile retains a strong, confident saline echo of the sea, Blackthorn salt has a certain depth and mellowness with a natural echo of the sea natural Blackthorn salt is unique! chefs and restaurants – such as the Fife Arms, Garry McLean and James Golding of The Pig Hotel Group as well as many others - have already chosen to experiment with Blackthorn, using it to finish off a bespoke cheese, incorporate into specialist charcutarie, add detailed taste notes to intracte deserts and cocktails, allowing it to delve deep into the marbleing of aged beef and for floating on gaspacho as well as using Blackthorn as their overall finishing salt. Everyday we look for more ways to lessen our environmental footprint and we are proud that our Thorn Tower method evaporates 90% of the seawater - purely due to the wind and sun working their magic - and uses 85% less energy than the usual applied heating methods. When the concentration of the remaining liquid is salty enough, we gently warm it in the panhouse to draw off the crystals by hand: it is a patient process - all about making the best we can. Blackthorn is proud to have brought salt making back home to the West Coast of
Scotland where it was once such a thriving local industry. Our methods and means may be very different from our forebearers’, but we would like to think they would be proud and amazed by everything that is Blackthorn Salt today. We also look the future and are always striving to improve. We are particularly proud of our plastic-free wee box: the perfect size for dipping your hand in, it also ensures that the precious salt is kept dust free and stored attractively after opening. Our ethos is always to be the best we can be, absolutely in terms of taste, but also crystal quality - that ‘crucial crunch factor’ - and in our attitudes and methods.

Banhoek Chilli Oil UK Ltd
Crows Farm Belchamp Walter Sudbury Suffolk CO10 7AP 01787 319766 banhoekchillioil.co.uk ed@banhoekchillioil.co.uk Corrymoor Farm is the home of Corrymoor Mohair socks. We have been breeding Angora goats and producing socks from mohair since 1992. Since 1986 we have lived and farmed 128 acres in the beautiful Blackdown Hills AONB. As well as the lovely Angora goats which produce the mohair for Corrymoor Socks, we run a herd of beef cattle. The farm has been fully organic (Soil Association accredited) since 1990. Known as the “diamond fibre”, mohair is renowned for its strength and durability, lustrous silky smooth fibres and unique wicking properties - the perfect natural material for socks. The fibres of mohair are 3 times more resistant to abrasion than are the fibres of sheep’s wool and so socks made with mohair last longer and are much more difficult to wear out. Mohair fibres are smooth and so don’t trap bacteria which cause smells and bad foot health: no bacteria = no smell. Corrymoor’s 150 goats are shorn twice a year and produce stunning silky mohair fleeces of between 2kg and 5kg at each shearing. The goats do their best to grow as much mohair as possible but as we sell around 20,000 socks a year, we do have to purchase mohair from other sources as well. The mohair used in the Corrymoor “Devon Stripes” range of socks is shorn entirely from our own flock. All our socks are knitted for us on traditional machinery in Leicestershire. Corrymoor Socks enjoy a worldwide reputation for comfort and durability. We offer a colourful, luxurious and hardwearing range of socks for men, women and children. Whatever the activity, whatever the weather, the hardwearing and ‘no sweat, no smell’ properties of mohair are a massive selling point. From bedsocks to elastic-free socks; from trainer socks to long socks; from hard-wearing cushioned socks to lightweight everyday socks, we have socks for every walk of life. Corrymoor has a huge loyal following and many of the farm shops we supply find that people come back again and again for socks. Although Corrymoors are available from our website, for many people seeing and feeling what you buy is all important. All trade customers are listed on our website with a direct website link.
