Aviation Gin

With Father’s Day fast approaching, why not spoil fathers everywhere with a bottle of Aviation American Gin and make a toast to them with an Aviation Negroni! Aviation American Gin, owned by Hollywood actor and producer Ryan Reynolds, has been voted the world’s highest rated gin and has helped establish a new style of American gin – softer and smoother, with juniper in the background and citrus and floral notes in the front – resulting in more balanced cocktails.

Bottleshot Coffee

For the coffee obsessed Dad, why not treat him to some cold brew, the New Orleans way? New Orleans, or the “Big Easy”, is famous for its great tasting cold brew coffee – not to be confused with iced coffee which is purely a hot coffee poured over ice. Bottleshot steeps its ethically sourced Arabica beans in cold water overnight. This process not only creates a smoother, stronger energy kick – one can is as strong as two espresso shots – but also means it has 60% less acidity than regular coffee, meaning a much cleaner flavour profile that’s kinder to your gut.

Thanks to the higher quality result of a long 18-hour brew, Bottleshot’s recipes can remain simple. There’s no added sugars, flavourings or crazy chemicals. It’s simply combining coffee and chicory for a smooth kick and naturally sweeter flavour. For more information on Bottleshot Cold Brew, visit: www.bottleshotbrew.com

Top picks from Independent Wine for Father’s Day

If you are on the lookout for high-quality wine picks then we have two of our favourites from Italian wine specialist Independent Wine.
Father's day gift
Ca’ di Rajo Cuvée del Fondatore | Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG A refined 2018 single vintage Prosecco with aromas of acacia flowers, citrus and apples. A multiple award-winner, this “Founder’s Cuvée” is a dry and light-bodied Prosecco Superiore made only from grapes harvested in 2018. It is a top quality Prosecco from the DOCG area of Conegliano Valdobbiadene, in the province of Treviso in Veneto. It has a pale lemon colour with greenish reflections, and intense aromas of acacia flowers, citrus and green apples. On the palate it is refreshing and dry, with a lightweight body and texture. It has a pronounced flavour intensity characterised by emerging fruit. It is balanced and harmonious, with a pleasant long finish.
Kurtatsch Curtis 2018 Merlot Cabernet | Alto Adige DOC – Saint-Émilion-style blend from the Dolomite Alps, with flavours of blackcurrant, blueberry and black pepper. Crafted by Kurtatsch in the Dolomite Alps, in the German-speaking corner of Italy, this red wine benefits from a deep flavour of black fruits. It’s a similar blend to Pomerol or Saint-Émilion from the Bordeaux Right Bank: made from 60% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Despite this similarity, this wine shows the specificity of Alto Adige. The climate is very favourable for sun-loving Merlot and Cabernet, helping them to ripen and develop. The soil is very different here, too: red-brown sandy loam soil with dolomite minerals. The resulting wines have pronounced flavours and a deep ruby colour. On the nose, this blend of Merlot and Cabernet offers pronounced aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, black cherry and lilac flowers, as well as  notes of black pepper, sweet pastry, coconut and raisin. In the mouth, the wine is dry, with medium acidity. It benefits from a visible texture, silky tannins, a high level of alcohol and a full body. Long pleasant finish.

This Father’s Day, why not fund a SchoolBag and give the Gift of Education to an underprivileged child around world?

School in a Bag is a UK registered charity, which was born out of the Piers Simon Appeal, a charity set-up in memory of Founder & CEO’s brother who died in the Indian Ocean Tsunami on Boxing Day in 2004. School in a Bag distributes SchoolBags to poor, orphan, disadvantaged and disaster-affected children around the world – to date over 122,500 SchoolBags have been handed out to children in 47 countries. Every SchoolBag is new, individually numbered and trackable on the School in a Bag website – more often than not, donors are able to learn details and see an image of the beneficiary of their SchoolBag. 262 million children around the world are deprived of an education, but one of these red bags, filled with stationery, eating utensils and a hygiene kit, gives them the option of going to school and a chance of a life out of poverty and hardship. What better gift than giving a child that opportunity?

A SchoolBag is a simple solution, each filled with essential resources that will enable a child to write, draw, colour, calculate, express themselves, eat, drink and above all, learn. A typical SchoolBag contains: pencils, biros, colouring pencils, a maths set, ruler, pencil case, 6 exercise books, a water bottle, a LunchBox with Spork and a hygiene kit which as a flannel, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste and a face mask.

A SchoolBag can be purchased through the School in a Bag eShop. The cost to fund a numbered, trackable SchoolBag as a gift is just £20.00. A SchoolBag can be funded in Dad’s name and they will receive their own SchoolBag Gift Card (digital or paper) containing the number/s of the SchoolBag/s they have had funded. With the Gift Card option, there’s still something to be opened on Father’s Day, or in email format to be sent to anywhere in the world…
