Caesar said he wanted a tropical India Pale Ale to keep him happy and get the monkey off our back. We jammed this beer full of our favourite USA and Kiwi hops. It bloody worked! A clean and crisp IPA, loaded full of NZ and US hops.

Fruity red deliciousness with the X factor from winemaker Tim Adams, formerly the red winemaker at Astrolabe Wines in Marlborough. He has moved onto new pastures and is making this juicy red from ripe Syrah grapes, allowing the wine to express all it savoury glory as it is bottled unfined and unfiltered.

Born from the pioneering spirit of Paul Theakston who, in 1992, followed his heart and dared to start a new brewery. Brewed in Masham, North Yorkshire, this beer is the culmination of six generations of family brewing expertise. Crisp, dry and bittersweet.

Exceptional half bottle of deliciousness from an unlikely corner of the country, Matakana, which is one of the smallest wine regions in New Zealand and situated north of Auckland. This wine is made by Toby Gillman, who fell in love with the idea of making wine after he spent his first student allowance on a bottle of Matakana red. 

He and his father John volunteered to work at the iconic Providence vineyard in Matakana on weekends, and later set up their own vineyard, which is home to the Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Malbec grapes that go into this little half bottle of deliciousness. 

We really enjoyed tasting the concentrated cassis and blackcurrant flavours in this six year old red, which is an outstanding wine to drink now, and has further potential for aging. Its weight, richness of flavour and big but smooth tannins all show impeccable balance for a high quality red based on a classic Bordeaux right bank style.

Mix things up with a mixed 6 pack of cider. 

In the box is two each of:

• Doris Plum Cider 4.5%
• Extra Dry Apple Cider 4.5%
• Cider with Strawberry & Lime Juice 4.5%

Savoury, structured and classically beautiful Bordeaux which drinks beautifully with complex black olive, dried herb and fragrant dark fruit flavours now; made from 48% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12% Cabernet Franc. 

Chateau Magnol has 31 hectares of grapes in the Haut-Médoc, west of the city of Bordeaux and has gravel as well as sandy soils in its vineyards. It has gained the classification of Cru Bourgeois, which this commandingly impressive wine more than lives up to. 

Here's a great little red blend from Antinori, which is a gorgeous expression of the insanely beautiful Tuscany region, but which is made from an interesting mix of Italian and French grapes. Sangiovese leads the way here with small quantities of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah, all grown in Tuscany. 

Antinori's winemakers describe this wine as firm bodied on the palate, supple with  velvety tannins and a long, savoury aftertaste.

A smooth and balanced spirit - a fine blend of golden grain and full flavoured malted barley.  Triple-distilled and aged a minimum of three years in bourbon barrels.  Proper No. Twelve offers hints of vanilla, honey-like sweetness and toasted wood.  A proper salute to all.

Gouden Carolus Ambrio is a full-tasting, but deceptively drinkable, amber ale has a good fruitiness and a nice hop edge which tempers the caramellised malt. It is clean and precise, within an almost perfect balance of Challenger and Goldings hops. The recipe has its origin in the 14th century. The present version is a little more heavy and contains more hops. The balance between the different malts, the fine hops and typical tastes of spices creates a perfect harmony between the powerful taste of brown beers and the freshness of the blond beers. This fresh aromatic and pithy light-brown drink can be served cool.

Galliano Amaretto is a rich, well balanced almond liqueur with an ABV of 28%. It is the perfect balance of almond and cherries, roasted cocoa beans & a hint of bourbon vanilla. Galliano Amaretto has a ‘luxurious, luscious’ taste. The viscosity is high which gives a ‘full mouth feel’.

All the ingredients and aromatic distillates are carefully blended at Maraschi e Quirici in Torino.

True to it’s name, “Leann folláin” being the Gaelic for “wholesome stout”, this full-bodied extra Irish stout is a fantastic example of how good stout can taste.
Flavours of dark chocolate tones with a hint of vanilla combine with the mild mocha aroma.
Opaque black in appearance with tan head, this luxurious stout has a classic European hop bitterness given a refreshing bite after the chocolate subsides
