Wildflower Gin with your choice of Midnight Mixers 4pk

Website link in BIO 😊

Wildflower gin a deliciously sweet and floral aroma, and a smooth and complex flavour that sets it apart from other gins. On the palate, notes of juniper, citrus, and spice, followed by a subtle hint of the floral notes that lingers on the finish.

Springbank's whisky-making is a bit like a delightful time warp! They stick to the good old-fashioned ways, the same tricks of the trade passed down through generations of whisky wizards. And unlike some distilleries that take shortcuts, Springbank's all about doing things themselves – even malting their own barley! It's a bit like baking your own bread from scratch – takes time, takes love, but oh-so-worth it. Their star player? The Springbank 10 Year Old. Imagine a classic single malt, aged in a mix of bourbon and sherry casks, and you've got a flavor explosion waiting to happen. Think vanilla, toffee, and a whisper of smoke – it's a tastebud adventure!

Pojer e Sandri Merlino – an Italian Unicorn

Pojer e Sandri is a special winery in Trentino, Italy, owned by the talented winemaker Mario Pojer and viticulturist Fiorentino Sandri. They've been crafting beautiful wines since 1975, starting with just a small two-hectare vineyard. Now, they lovingly tend to 26 hectares of organically certified vines! Besides their acclaimed wines, they also have their own distillery.

Merlino is a unique fortified red wine, kind of like Port, but with a special twist. It's more than just a "fortified red" or "liqueur wine"—it's truly one-of-a-kind, and probably the first of its kind in the Trentino region, maybe even all of Italy!

Let's talk about the Pojer e Sandri Merlino 19/06. The "16" tells us it's from the 2019 vintage, and the "06" means the brandy used in it was distilled in 2006. This blend of aged brandy and fine wine is what makes Merlino so special.

A Legacy of Elegance: Luigi Giordano

Nestled amidst the rolling hills of Barbaresco, near the meandering Tanaro River, lies the Luigi Giordano estate. Founded in the 1930s by Giovanni Giordano, the winery has witnessed the evolution of the Italian wine world. While the family initially sold their grapes, Giovanni's son, Luigi, recognized the unique potential of their terroir and embarked on a journey of quality winemaking in 1960. This pioneering spirit paved the way for many other Barbaresco producers.
Today, Luigi Giordano stands as a fifth-generation family winery, proudly cultivating vineyards in some of the most prestigious crus in the region, including Asili, Montestefano, and Cavanna. The Cavanna cru, a single-vineyard treasure exclusively owned by the estate, exemplifies Luigi Giordano's philosophy of minimal intervention and showcases the unique character of the land.
Matteo Rocca, Luigi's grandson, carries on the family tradition with a deep respect for his grandfather's elegant and time-honored approach. The estate focuses on cultivating traditional varieties like Nebbiolo, the heart of Barbaresco, alongside Dolcetto, Barbera, Freisa, and the aromatic Arneis, a popular white grape of Piedmont.
Matteo adheres to traditional winemaking techniques, including extended maceration on the skins and aging in large oak barrels. These methods allow the wines to develop complexity and depth, reflecting the unique terroir of each vineyard. Luigi Giordano Barbaresco: a legacy of quality, tradition, and a deep connection to the land.
