Tooting the trumpets for our new Quince Brandy!
\nIt has been a little while since we have launched a new product, and a long time since we have launched a product that was completely unique to us. Our new Quince Brandy Liqueur 17% is not just new, it is completely unique and available to try in our York store or order online for delivery.<\/p>\n

Made for us by our good friends the Temperley family in Somerset, genius of all things Cider Brandy, our new Quince Brandy Liqueur really has legs. It is quietly brilliant, tasting of figs and apples, and with a very pleasant dryness on the tongue, yet somehow sweet.<\/p>\n

So unusual is this drink, that the Demijohn R&D department, (Frances and I at Demijohn HQ!), have been busy mixing it up to find out how it works best. Our initial studies have led us to love it over ice, rave about it with tonic, mint, limes and lemons and gush about it with fizz.<\/p>\n

We actually need your help now in working out how best to drink our Quince Brandy Liqueur. So please let us know how you get on at home with your own experiments?<\/p>\n

REVEALED: FLOWERS OF THE ZODIAC AND THIER SYMBOLIC MEANING<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

SIGNS OF the Zodiac originate from Babylonian astrology and can often offer guidance and comfort to those who believe them. Whether in times of struggle or marking a new start, Zodiacs are there to show the future is written in the stars.<\/p>\n

Whilst everyone knows that each Zodiac sign correlates to a different time of year, did you know that each Zodiac also has a corresponding flower? Zodiac flowers reflect each star sign\u2019s personality trait and offer insight into what the stars have planned for us. After all, each Zodiac is as unique as a flower.<\/p>\n

The UK\u2019s leading online florist, Serenata Flowers has revealed the flowers that symbolise each sign of the Zodiac. Looking to get a personal gift for someone special? Consult the list below\u2026<\/p>\n

Aries (21st March \u2013 20th April): Honeysuckle<\/p>\n

Aries symbolises new beginnings as the first sign of the Zodiac. Aries are known for being assertive, and this is reflected by their birth flowers – thistles and honeysuckle – which bloom in bold colours during the early spring.<\/p>\n

Taurus (23rd April \u2013 23rd May): Lilies<\/p>\n

Sensuous Taurus loves being overwhelmed with love, so it\u2019s no surprise that their birth flower is the heavily flagrant lily. Choose lilies when picking a gift for the Taurus in your life and enjoy their seductive scent together.<\/p>\n

Gemini (22nd May \u2013 21st June): Lavender<\/p>\n

Sociable Gemini\u2019s will feel most connected to lavender flowers, which grow in abundance in country gardens. Its vivid purple colour and attractive smell synergises with Gemini\u2019s natural charisma and irresistible charm.<\/p>\n

Cancer (22nd June \u2013 22nd July): White Rose<\/p>\n

Moon-child Cancer will feel a sense of serenity with white flowers – especially white roses. The delicate white petals are symbolic of Cancer\u2019s inner sensitivity. White is a significant colour for Cancer as it offers a blank canvas that allows Cancer\u2019s creativity to flourish and bloom.<\/p>\n

Leo (23rd July \u2013 22nd August): Sunflower<\/p>\n

Leos are notoriously outgoing and outlandish, so it comes as no surprise that they feel most connected with sunflowers. Enjoy a burst of sunlight from these bright flowers that will remind admirers of Leo\u2019s happy demeanour.<\/p>\n

Virgo (23rd August \u2013 23rd September): Chrysanthemums<\/p>\n

Virgo\u2019s are known for being perfectionists with a keen eye for detail. Petit flowers such a chrysanthemums are associated with those born under the Virgo Zodiac. Virgos can enjoy these little flowers mixed with larger blooms.<\/p>\n

Libra (23rd September \u2013 23rd October): Roses<\/p>\n

Libras have a clear sense of right and wrong, and are often incredibly balanced, much like a perfectly composed rose. The colour blue also holds special meaning for Libras so why not give a rose bouquet, interlaced with smaller blue buds, as a gift for your Libra loved one.<\/p>\n

Scorpio (23rd October \u2013 23rd November): Dark Red Flowers<\/p>\n

Filled with mystery and known for being dark horses, Scorpios feel a connection to dark red flowers such as geraniums. As they are naturally academic, Scorpios could keep a bouquet of dark red flowers on their desk, to add a touch of glamour to their workplace.<\/p>\n

Sagittarius (23rd November \u2013 23rd December): Carnations<\/p>\n

Lovable Sagittarius feels most connected to popular carnations. Pretty and uncomplicated, carnations are sure to add a feminine touch to any home and put a smile on a Sagittarius\u2019 face. Carnations are most commonly associated with wedding flowers, which corresponds perfectly with Sagittarius\u2019 love of love.<\/p>\n

Capricorn (23rd December \u2013 23rd January): Pansy<\/p>\n

Often one of the first flowers to be seen in the new year, pansies correspond to tenacious Capricorns. Pansies often return year after year and spread larger with each season, much like the determined and hardworking Capricorns, who seem to only get better with age.<\/p>\n

Aquarius (21st January \u2013 19th February): Orchid<\/p>\n

Anything but ordinary, delicate orchids share a multitude of similarities to those born under the Aquarius Zodiac. Much like orchids, Aquarius are highly affected by their surroundings, becoming energetic when they are in the comfort of friends. With a little TLC Aquarius\u2019 really bloom – much like their Zodiac flower.<\/p>\n

Pisces (23rd February \u2013 23rd March): Water Lilies<\/p>\n

With the Pisces Zodiac symbol being a fish is it any surprise that they find a kindred spirit in water lilies? Like a water lily, Pisces are artistic and whimsical in their approach to life. They often find themselves floating along, enjoying the ride and they share this sense of fun with everyone they meet.<\/p>\n

Lucia Polla, marketing manager at Serenata Flowers, comments: \u201cMost people will know their star sign and some of the basic attributes that correspond to them, but what they might not know is each sign of the Zodiac has an assigned flower.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor thousands of years people have looked to the stars to gain insight into their own being, creating clear profiles for each Zodiac by assigning colours, gemstones and elements, so it should come as no surprise that each star sign also has a corresponding flower.<\/p>\n

\u201cPersonalising gifts for friends and family can prove difficult, so a bouquet of flowers that corresponds to a loved one\u2019s Zodiac is sure to put a smile on their face. Knowing that thought went into selecting stems specifically for them will definitely make them feel special and might make them feel more in touch with the stars.\u201d<\/p>\n

Whisky Sour Day: Celebrate with Cotswolds Single Malt Whisky<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Celebrate Whisky Sour Day on the 25th August with Cotswolds Single Malt Whisky. This classic cocktail, which thrived during Prohibition, is delicious, looks impressive and is easy to create at home. Global Brand Ambassador of Cotswolds Distillery, Oliver Morris, has given this timeless cocktail his own twist using local Cotswolds honey:<\/p>\n

60ml Cotswolds Single Malt Whisky<\/p>\n

25ml lemon juice<\/p>\n

15ml sugar syrup<\/p>\n

bar spoon honey (5ml)<\/p>\n

15ml egg white or aquafaba<\/p>\n

2 dashes of Angostura Bitters<\/p>\n

Garnish: lemon wheel and cherry<\/p>\n

Dissolve the honey in Cotswolds Single Malt Whisky. Dry shake (without ice) all the ingredients, add ice to the shaker, shake and strain into an ice chilled Old Fashioned Glass. Garnish with a lemon wheel and a cherry.<\/p>\n

Speaking about this luscious cocktail Oliver says: \u201cthis delicious mix offers a smooth silky hint of citrus sourness, complemented with the balance of honeyed sweetness, elevating the gorgeous rich and fruity taste of Cotswolds Single Malt. My passion is complementing our amazing spirits with locally sourced produce, to know that the bees that made the honey are from the same terroir as the Cotswolds barley, fills me full of delight.\u201d<\/p>\n

Award winning Cotswolds Single Malt Whisky is the first whisky ever distilled in the Cotswolds. The distillery uses 100% locally grown, floor-malted barley and matures the whisky in first-fill ex-Bourbon barrels and reconditioned red wine casks. This English whisky is rich, fruity and sippable with notes of honey, Seville orange marmalade and dark red fruits. Each bottle lists the barley variety, harvest year and local Cotswolds farm it was grown on.<\/p>\n

Cotswolds Single Malt Whisky: RRP: \u00a344.95 for 700 ml. ABV 46%. Available from: waitrose.com, majestic.co.uk, thewhiskyexchange.com, Harrods, Laithwaites and cotswoldsdistillery.com<\/p>\n

Starbucks expands its footprint to Cape Town<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Starbucks has affirmed its bullish view on the South African market with a bold expansion into Cape Town, scheduled for later this year. This was announced by Adrian Maizey, owner and CEO of Rand Capital Coffee, the custodian of Starbucks in Southern Africa.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe remain committed to our expansion strategy and vision, which is to provide all South Africans with an extraordinary experience and offering, from both a customer and partner perspective, despite the Covid-19 pandemic.\u201d Maizey refers to Starbucks employees as \u2018partners\u2019 in line with the company\u2019s global policy as the term fosters a sense of equality and shared vision, and is consistent with Starbucks\u2019 mission to inspire and nurture the human spirit \u2013 one person, one cup and one neighbourhood at a time.<\/p>\n

Maizey says that Starbucks\u2019 launch into Cape Town was initially intended to happen in June. \u201cWhen Covid-19 hit we had to place the initiative on hold, triggering several hard decisions that impacted all partners, and a mass round of lease renegotiations across the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cFortunately, we have resilient partners and we are grateful to those landlords who share our vision and commitment to contribute to the South African economy, and who have worked closely with us to help ensure our expansion was only delayed and not cancelled. It is during such a time of crisis that the importance of collaboration between all stakeholders for the greater good, is most apparent,\u201d says Maizey.<\/p>\n

With several leases now in place in the Mother City, and investment initiated in the requisite supply chain, which the company has now brought inhouse, Starbucks Southern Africa is now embarking on building its Cape Town team. Rand Capital Coffee\u2019s expansion journey will initially result in at least 50 permanent new jobs, with the further employment of local artists, construction contractors, and artisans.<\/p>\n

Behind the strong Starbucks brand, says Maizey, is its employees. \u201cOur business is strong because of our store partners who have shown up in support of one another and our business in tough times. They will be the ones who take Starbucks South Africa to the next level, and who will be the drivers behind the South African public\u2019s growing passion and enjoyment of this incredible brand.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the subject of store design and experience, Maizey says the Cape Town stores \u201cwill offer an experience consistent with the values and store atmosphere that Starbucks is known for globally, designed to reflect the most beautiful city of them all.\u201d<\/p>\n

Adds Maizey, \u201cWe are humbled and delighted to introduce the Starbucks Experience to customers in Cape Town and hope our store will become not only a destination for an exceptional coffee, but also a gathering place for the local community. We look forward to sharing our deep pride and enthusiasm for coffee, brewed and served by a world-class team of passionate, knowledgeable partners with Capetonians and visitors to the city.\u201d<\/p>\n

Starbucks began in 1971 as a roaster and retailer of beans, ground coffee, tea and spices, with a single store in Seattle. Today the company connects with millions of customers every day with its own special taste and offering that has seen the company grow to more than 30,000 retail stores in 80 markets.<\/p>\n

THE UK\u2019S MOST SOCIALLY DISTANCED CAMPING SPOTS TO PITCH THIS SUMMER REVEALED<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

45% intend to go camping this year
\nNorthern Ireland, the East and West Midlands and the North East have topped a list of the most socially-distanced places to camp this year<\/p>\n

AS THE UK experiences a summer camping boom, a list of the most unsung places in the UK to head to for a socially-distanced pitch has been published.<\/p>\n

And as it seems the UK\u2019s campsites are set to be heaving this summer \u2013 indeed, a survey of 1,007 UK adults published by Decathlon, revealed that almost half of Brits (45%) have either booked or are considering booking a camping trip this year – this is very much needed.<\/p>\n

Northern Ireland topped the list as the most socially-distant camping destinations in the UK, with just 5% of campers heading there this summer. This is despite a ferry connecting the rest of the UK to Northern Ireland via Birkenhead, meaning visitors needn\u2019t fly, and it being home to both incredible countryside and Giant\u2019s Causeway, one of the UK\u2019s most breath-taking natural scenes.<\/p>\n

Just 7% are planning on pitching in the West Midlands, meaning campers wanting to make like the Peaky Blinders and camp out in the wild of the Black Country, or visit historic Stratford-upon-Avon, will find they have more space to camp.<\/p>\n

Amazingly, only 8% intend to head to the East Midlands \u2013 an area which includes parts one of England\u2019s most stunning national parks, the Peak District, where waterfalls, unforgettable views and unique moorland are combined.<\/p>\n

The North East \u2013 home to stunningly wild beaches and beautiful sights like Bamburgh Castle and the Angel of the North \u2013 are also likely to offer quieter camping spots this year, with just 9% intending to pitch up.<\/p>\n

Surprisingly, just 11% intend to camp within the South East \u2013 meaning many will be able to enjoy campsites near beautiful beaches such as Brighton and Hove, or beauty spots like High Weald and the Kent Downs, away from the crowds.<\/p>\n

To assist would-be campers in finding a spot that will allow them to enjoy the great outdoors in more relative isolation, Decathlon has teamed up with Ordnance Survey to produce the Beat The Crowds Camping Calculator, which campers can use to identify less popular areas, based on who they are travelling with and what kind of nature they would like nearby.<\/p>\n

According to the data, those avoiding the crowds should steer clear of the South West, home to the beautiful beaches of Cornwall and Devon, as 1 in 4 (25%) British campers are intending to pitch up there this year.<\/p>\n

Wales is another spot that is proving extremely popular amongst campers, with almost the same number \u2013 23% – of visitors intending to head there this year.<\/p>\n

And Scotland is also expecting an influx of campers, as 1 in 5 (20%) intend to visit.<\/p>\n

The research shows that campsites near beaches (52%), the countryside (49%) and lakes (40%) are proving to be the most popular this year.<\/p>\n

While those located near hiking and swimming spots nearby towns and cities (24%), mountains (28%) and tourist attractions (29%) are the best bet for those looking for a more socially-distanced camping experience.<\/p>\n

Chris Allen, Mountain Sports Market Leader at Decathlon UK, comments: \u201cOne of the best things about camping is getting out into the peace and quiet of nature, but understandably, the UK\u2019s campsites are proving extremely popular amongst staycationers this year, so we wanted to produce a tool which will allow those wanting to go camping to identify areas where they will be able to camp in quieter surroundings and know they can do so while not having to worry about crowds which might inhibit their abilities to maintain social distancing.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really surprising to see destinations like Northern Ireland and the East Midlands at the top of the list of where campers are less likely to head this year. Northern Ireland is home to some incredible scenery and what many believe to be one of the wonders of the world, while the Peak District National Park, some of which falls within the East Midlands, is one of the first places I would consider camping in the UK. The South East with its fantastic beaches looks to be a particularly good spot for those wanting a coastal location this year.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nick Giles, Managing Director Ordnance Survey Consumer, comments: \u201cLockdown has inspired so many of the UK population to get out into the great outdoors, which is fantastic to see. But it\u2019s understandable that many will want to do so while avoiding the crowds.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt OS we want to make the outdoors enjoyable, accessible and safe. We live in a country packed with incredible places to explore, from hiking trails, cycling paths and mountain biking routes which we can use to get away from it all. Our advice would be to look at the areas surrounding where you\u2019re staying, plan ahead, and you can find some amazing places and routes which you can follow to get away from it all.\u201d<\/p>\n

Decathlon has 45 stores in the UK and sells a variety of sports equipment, clothing and accessories perfect for those who want to get active or excel their performance.<\/p>\n

Read together and enjoy the unfolding adventures as a family or let your little one curl up and discover the magic of reading for themselves.<\/p>\n

A gift-wrapped, brand-new book arrives on the doorstep each month accompanied by fun questions about the title to further inspire and engage your young reader. Children\u2019s Book Club gifts are available at www.childrensbookclub.co.uk on a one, three, six or 12 month subscription basis, starting from \u00a311.99 per month, including free UK delivery.<\/p>\n

The Children\u2019s Book Club was founded by Louise Knight, a mother of two with a passion for books and a background in children\u2019s publishing. Louise was made redundant before the pandemic and during lockdown was inspired to set up the subscription box service in order to help children aged from 0-17 discover the magic, wellbeing and knowledge reading can bring.<\/p>\n

Student president welcomes government U-turn<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u200b\"\"<\/p>\n

Responding to the news that GCSE students will now receive their teacher predicted grades, and A Level students will receive the higher of their teacher predicted or CCEA awarded grades, NUS-USI President Ellen Fearon said:<\/p>\n

“I welcome the decision today that students will now be able to receive their teacher predicated grades at both A-Level and GCSE. This will provide a huge relief to students who have faced months of uncertainty already. They should never have had to face the worry and stress that this situation has caused.<\/p>\n

“This victory belongs to students who would not accept their futures being decided by an unjust algorithm. We\u2019ve seen students mobilise and protest in NI, Scotland, Wales and England to force four U-turns from each respective government. I would encourage all students to reflect on this moment and realise the power that they have to change our education system for the better.<\/p>\n

“Going forward, we want the government to use this as an opportunity to launch an investigation into standardised assessment and the inherent inequalities in the education system, which have been compounded by a decade of under-investment. There must also be a fair and easy-to-use appeals process for any student who is unhappy with their grade.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m so proud of every single student who organised to reverse this system!\u201d<\/p>\n

SONI\u2019s Real Rugby Heroes Announced: Three domestic rugby volunteers scoop \u00a31,000 prizes for their clubs<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

SONI (System Operator for Northern Ireland) runs Northern Ireland\u2019s electricity grid. SONI Ulster Rugby\u2019s annual awards programme, Real Rugby Heroes, which recognises volunteers who make an invaluable contribution across community rugby, has announced this year\u2019s three winners:<\/p>\n

Administrative Volunteer (anyone who volunteers primarily to help run the club e.g. finance, catering, treasurer) \u2013 Beverley Esler, school teacher and Honorary Secretary at PSNI RFC<\/p>\n

Beverley has been an active member of the club but for approximately 20 years. She has been instrumental in organising Club fundraisers, Club dinners and ensuring continued funds from sponsors. She has become well known in rugby circles, often representing the clubs at events in other clubs and at the Ulster Branch. Beverley\u2019s fulfilment of these responsibilities ensures the smooth running of the club.<\/p>\n

Youth & Mini Rugby Volunteer (anyone who volunteers within youth and mini rugby including youth disability teams) – Robert Dillon, Youth Rugby Convenor from Strabane RFC<\/p>\n

Robert Dillon has been volunteering with the club for 24 years. Robert has played (and still does) for the club\u2019s senior teams for the best part of 30 years. For 20 of those years he was also the club secretary. To say that he is a stalwart of the club simply wouldn\u2019t do him justice. Robert has been at the fore front of everything the club has done, from captaining the playing team to organising social trips and club events. As Youth Convenor, Robert helped Strabane RFC pick up an Ulster Carpets Club Youth award earlier this year, in recognition for the club having the most improved ranking in the youth leagues.<\/p>\n

Women & Girls Rugby Volunteer (anyone who volunteers within women and girls rugby across senior, youth and mini rugby) \u2013 Katie Speers, Coach from Ballymoney RFC<\/p>\n

Katie, a previous SONI Community Champion finalist in 2016, has been a vital member of the Ballymoney RFC for the last 16 years, and undertook the setting up and implementing of girls youth rugby in Ballymoney. She has taken on all roles in relation to, the setting up of this new venture, fixtures, coaching, sponsorship, fundraising and welfare for the girls. Katie is also head of first aid for the club and organises the annual carol service which is attended by the local community.<\/p>\n

The Real Rugby Heroes Awards seeks out volunteers who make an invaluable contribution to the game at a grassroots level, enriching communities across Ulster. Each of the winners has won an incredible \u00a31,000 for their club.<\/p>\n

Jo Aston, Managing Director of SONI, said: “Rugby across Ulster plays an important part in communities, particularly at a grassroots level and especially during these unprecedented times. The clubs provide people with an opportunity not only to enjoy the game, but also enrich family and community life. Behind the scenes, there are so many selfless people who give up their time to ensure the smooth running of their clubs. Each year we meet incredible volunteers who do so much. Congratulations to all this year\u2019s winners.\u201d<\/p>\n

The award scheme was launched by SONI in 2015 as part of its domestic sponsorship of the SONI Ulster Rugby Premiership and has grown in popularity each year with more clubs across Ulster putting forward their best volunteers for recognition.<\/p>\n

Barry Willis, Rugby Operations Manager at Ulster Rugby said: \u201cVolunteers drive rugby in Ulster, without their dedication and hard work, the game simply does not happen. The SONI Real Rugby Heroes programme, allows Ulster Rugby to recognise these efforts and shine a light on individuals who continue to make a difference every day. Many congratulations to the very deserving winners, across the three categories, who have been nominated and recognised by their peers for their outstanding contributions. Our thanks go to SONI, for their support in recognising the efforts of our winners, and the thousands of rugby volunteers who contribute to the game in Ulster.\u201d<\/p>\n

SONI operates and plans the electricity grid in Northern Ireland. This includes maximising electricity supply generated through renewable energy sources and managing the interconnection with neighbouring grids and the wholesale electricity market. SONI\u2019s role is to send power from where it is generated to where it is needed, efficiently and at the most economic price possible, today, tomorrow and for decades to come.<\/p>\n
