Christmas Ensemble
Top of the tree among our Christmas offerings is this one, based again around our Christmas Five. For the accompaniments ... we've pulled a few more stops out!
Our neighbour Clare Gault makes a beautiful Cranberry Chutney just for Christmas, in addition to which you'll find another Devon creation in Otter Vale's Pear and Ginger Chutney. A welcome reminder of warmer weather comes in the shape of Pelagonia’s Sweet Cherry Peppers, and from Casalinga in Italy we’re including both Nocellara Olives and Borettane Onions (in balsamic vinegar).
Biscuits are represented by a selection from Peter’s Yard with seeded toasts from Olina's Bakehouse. Global Harvest's Dorset-made plum preserve (you can slice it, like membrillo) rounds out the accompaniments.
Wine is represented by a classic Bordeaux in the form of Château Toinet Lavalade, and just to mix things up a bit there’s Somerset Pomona (a mixture of cider brandy and single-variety apple juice) from master distiller Julian Temperley.
