Supplier Spotlight: Poulton Hill
Producing up to 20,000 bottles a year, from their 9,750 vines planted on the warm and sunny south-facing slopes of Poulton Hill Estate, we are shining a light on friends of Thyme and local Cotswold wine makers Poulton Hill, in celebration of English Wine Week.
Supplier Spotlight: Floreat
Taking its name from the Latin term, meaning 'let flourish', Floreat is the creation of Anne-Marie Hurst, a qualified medical herbalist. Inspired from the reasoning behind the desire for a glass of wine, Floreat is the perfect drink to enjoy during a spa experience.
Supplier Spotlight: Amie Wine
We came across amie wine through our friends at Aurelia and got to know the brand story, which immediately resonated with us at Thyme.
Supplier Spotlight: Gosnells Of London
Mead often conjures up images of Vikings, Beowulf and Game of Thrones, but the drink has a lot more to offer than its traditional novelty “castle gift shop” image suggests. Here at Gosnells we’re making mead modern, by shaking up aged perceptions of this honey based alcohol.
Good Coffee ~ Olly Wilkins
Choosing an ethical coffee brand
Direct-trade is fairer than fair trade. There’s a real myth around fair trade where it isn’t actually as fair as you would first think. Quality is often compromised with fair trade whereas direct-trade links are more ethical and sustainable for both the farmer and the roaster.
Spill the Grapes ~ Nyetimber’s Brad Greatrix
English Sparkling Winemaking with Nyetimber
The quintessentially British brand shares our ethos for conservation and appreciation for the land. Winemaker, Brad Greatrix, spills the grapes on the art of English sparkling winemaking.
Seedlip comes to Thyme
My family’s story begins in the 17th century with our farm in Lincolnshire; nine generations ago when we began farming, there were no machines or tractors, so we used a basket called a Seedlip to sow seed.
