A FAVOUR FOR FLAVOUR, TELLING TALL TALES OF JUNIPER JOURNEYS
Hi, I’m a spirits writer, judge and consultant based on the South Coast, UK. I’ve been getting stuck into spirits for seven years and I love what I do. Starting with gin, my interest in spirits is spreading into everything from rum, to mezcal, to pisco. Spirits are a delightful and creative thing to enjoy, and they satisfy the nerd in me with ever evolving processes and science. They also have a place in our sociocultural history and teach us lessons of our human past. Fascination and fun are my two favourite things and here on my site I celebrate spirits with articles, recipes and photography.
