Staoisha

This week we’ve got a smashing single malt from Bunnahabhain,
this one carries the Staoisha name, meaning you can expect a
peaty flavour profile.
Distilled in 2013, the whisky
was matured in a single hogshead cask which was cracked open in
2022 by the folks at indie bottler Berry Bros. & Rudd,
releasing an outturn of 308 bottles. A palate dominated by peat
smoke, wool jumpers, charcoal and ash, held together with a
pleasingly sweet oak character and a burst of lemon zest. Superb
stuff. Cheers!

Looking for inspiration for your next adventure in
the Downs? Look no further! Here's our top spot to visit this
June...
|
|

Ranscombe Farm
Reserve
Ranscombe Farm
Reserve is situated on the stunning Kent Downs and is a Site of
Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). It is managed by Plantlife, the UK’s leading
wildflower conservation charity. This 560-acre reserve
has 10km of footpaths to explore across ancient farmland, pockets
of chalk grassland and coppice woods with stunning views across the
Medway Gap and Luddesdown valley.
The site is famous for its extremely unusual
collection of rare wild plants, especially arable wildflowers and
orchids. There are several varieties of wild poppies that
form rich red carpets along the edges of the farm’s wheat fields in
June. The woodlands are now being managed for conservation and have
good populations of dormice, birds, large mammals, butterflies and
insects. There are free guided walks available throughout the
year and opportunities to volunteer on the site.

the River Calder and the Calder and Hebble canal, the pub enjoys
stunning views of both waterways. The newly
constructed front beer garden will seat around 100 customers and
to the rear there is a further traditionally flagged seating
area, along with a unique decked area directly overlooking the
canal. The scenic canal and towpath offer and unrivalled spot for
drinkers to sit and enjoy the summer months. The original,
prominent ‘Bingley Arms’ stone carved signage has been repainted
in gold to further enhance the imposing character of the 18th
century building.
The Georgian pub has stood on Wakefield’s Horbury Bridge for over
200 years, originally built in 1822. The Bingley has thousands of
commuters passing the busy area around Bridge Road each day.
With a huge range of award-winning craft beer from SALT,
alongside traditional cask ales from Ossett, it is set to be
every beer-lovers’ heaven. But it’s not just about the beer, they
will also be offering a huge range of spirits, wines from
Barrique Fine Wines (the groups own wine wholesaler), Cocktails
“On Tap”, soft drinks and much more.
Delicious Asian street food will be up for grabs on the second
floor by street food vendor, Baobros23, famous in West Yorkshire
for its award-winning Asian steamed buns.
Owner Jamie Lawson said: “The reopening of this once extremely popular
pub is a key post Covid investment for our two breweries, SALT
and Ossett. We are so excited to put this landmark pub back on
the map after an exciting face lift which will inject new life
into the Horbury Bridge community.
“We rescued the Bingley with ambitious restoration plans. Those
plans were put on hold by the pandemic hitting the hospitality
sector particularly hard but after 6 months of hard work we are
ready to open the doors. We look forward to welcoming both old
and new customers back to The Bingley with a unique site that
offers something to all.”

The Three Inch Fools
'Robin Hood'

folktale, Robin Hood. Beneath the Major Oak, this inept troupe of

to go!

Roses).

summer drinks. Pop by for a glass or a leisurely afternoon or
evening sharing a bottle – and some perfectly paired nibbles.
