The art of winemaking has been around for thousands of years. It’s a natural process which requires very little intervention from humans, but each winemaker will guide the process through various techniques. Generally, there are 5 basic elements to creating wine: harvesting, crushing and pressing, fermentation, clarification, and finally, ageing and bottling. Winemakers will follow these five steps but often add in their own variations along the way to help create their own unique wine.

When you think gin, do you think English? British gin, and specifically English gin, has an evocative backstory that involves the clash of classes, the impact of technology, the adventure on the high seas and so on. Here’s a quick overview of the long and often tempestuous history of English gin.

Summer is fast approaching, which means there is no better time than now for perfecting your beer palette. But what do we even mean by that and more importantly where do you even begin?

Looking at the colour of the ale beer can be a great general indicator of the flavour, the beer brewing process and also the history behind it too.
