Orange Wine

Orange wine, also known as skin-contact wine or amber wine, has gained popularity in recent years for several reasons. This unique style of wine is made by fermenting white grapes with their skins, similar to the process used for red wines. Orange wine, with its unconventional production method and distinct taste, offers a new and exciting option for those looking to expand their palate and explore lesser-known wine styles.

The rise of the natural wine movement has contributed to the popularity of orange wine. Natural wines are produced with minimal intervention, often using organic or biodynamic farming practices. Orange wines, with their ancient winemaking technique and minimal use of additives, align well with the principles of the natural wine movement, attracting consumers seeking authentic and unprocessed products.

Moonshine

During Prohibition, moonshiners operated in secret to produce and distribute illegal alcohol across America. In recent years, there has been a resurgence of interest in artisan and craft distillation. Often marketed as "white whiskey" or "unaged corn whiskey," embracing the historical roots while bringing this unique spirit into the modern world.

White Port

White port is a versatile and underrated drink. A full-flavoured, rich, off dry, with a nutty nose and aromas of raisins and dried flowers. Made from white grapes native to the Douro Valley such as Malvasia, Viosinho and Gouveio and many more depending on the producer. White Port's crisp, aromatic flavour profile makes it a versatile base for many cocktails.

Mezcal

The intricate and smoky agave-based spirit originating from Mexico, has been experiencing a surge in global popularity. Mezcal's unique, craft flavour profile and versatility for serving suggestions make it a spirit to watch out for in 2024.
