For The Drinker And Non Drinker
Honey Mead is one of the world’s oldest alcoholic drinks, made simply from fermented honey. Famously enjoyed by the Vikings, its recent renaissance has been put down to the popularity of Norse culture, from TV dramas such as Game of Thrones, to Royal Mail even featuring Viking artefacts on a limited edition set of stamps.
Hailing from York, the Viking capital of England, Nidhoggr Mead Co is riding that trend, as demand for its range of authentically crafted honey mead grows beyond its niche heritage. Its Viking founder, Peter Taylor appeared on the latest series of Dragon’s Den and, despite not securing investment, he’s seen the business go from strength-to-strength. He’s more than tripled production to 50,000 bottles a year, secured shelf space in Morrisons and started exporting to the US.
The craft meadery uses only local and sustainably harvested Yorkshire honey for its drinks, which come in eight flavours and can be enjoyed alone, with a mixer, or as part of a cocktail, perfect for a whole host of occasions and celebrations.
Each product is ABV 15%. It is available at nidhoggrmead.com and in selected Morrisons stores in Yorkshire, with prices starting from £24.
Burnt Faith, the trailblazing distillery that’s been redefining the world of brandy with its bold ideas and fearless spirit has released its gift pack just in time for Father’s Day gifting.
The pack includes a full bottle of Burnt Faith Batch 1 and a branded brandy glass for just £45, available to purchase via burntfaith.com.
Led by founder and serial drinks entrepreneur, Simon Wright, Burnt Faith is where tradition meets innovation in the heart of Walthamstow, Northeast London. Their mission is to unlock the real potential of brandy which began a few years back when they spent time in the Cognac region of France — taken both by the passion and the constraints of its traditional methods. Since building their state-of-the-art distillery in 2023, complete with a Charentais pot still, Burnt Faith has been on a mission to unlock the true potential of brandy. As a new distillery, sustainability was baked into the design and has influenced production and operational decisions – from still design to minimising the carbon footprint of supply.
Tasting note: Marmalade and dried apricot on the nose, a velvety smooth mouthfeel with caramel and chocolate – a bit like a rolo on the palate with a wild cherry fruity finish.
Ron Santiago de Cuba™ Añejo 8-Year-Old ABV 40%, RRP £25.25 at Tesco & Sainsburys

This Father’s Day, skip the clichés and give dad something that’ll truly make a difference to his and your life! Lion’s Mane and Cordyceps mushrooms offer a natural, effective way to keep dad’s brain sharp, his energy high, and his health in check
As Father’s Day approaches, forget the ties and BBQ sets—let’s talk about something that’ll really keep dad on his toes: medicinal mushrooms, specifically Lion’s Mane and Cordyceps. These fungi are the secret potions to help dads stay sharp, energetic, and healthy.
Lion’s Mane Mushroom: The Brain Booster
Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus) isn’t just another funny-looking mushroom; it’s a brain booster extraordinaire. Packed with active and important compounds like hericenones and erinacines, it stimulates connectivity within the brain and may fight off cognitive decline. Studies suggest Lion’s Mane can enhance memory, which means fewer “I forgot where I put my keys” moments and more “Dad, how do you know all this stuff?” moments. It’s also a mood lifter, helping to keep anxiety and depression at bay, so dad can enjoy his family time with a smile. What a gift!
Cordyceps Mushroom: The Energy Enhancer
Some compare Cordyceps mushroom to the equivalent of a double-shot espresso – sure – though it works in a very different way. Not “stimulant” as such, it ramps up ATP production, essential for muscle energy, making it perfect for dads who want to keep up! Cordyceps is also used to support the immune system and, it’s a heart health hero, improving blood flow, also helping maintain healthy cholesterol levels.
Incorporating Lion’s Mane and Cordyceps into daily routines is easy! ENRICHD offer highly bio available extract powders which can be enjoyed in hot water, hot choc, coffee or in your smoothies.
