We are so used to factory-made foodstuff but how familiar are we with the homemade ones? And why the latter is always preferred when comes to foodstuff? Obviously, take a homemade peanut butter for example, it packs with the artisanal craftsmanship that you won’t find it in the mass-produced products. ‘Homemade’ means being selective about everything from raw material to formulation and packing. Pairing exquisite ingredients such as brown sugar and sea salt with high-quality, fresh, 100% natural roasted peanuts – without preservative and free from trans fats and cholesterol –  for guilt-free gastronomic pleasures.

Such is the ‘heart and soul’ of the Freshye homemade peanut butter, giving you a nutritious and healthy diet to stay energetic throughout the day.

*Stir through natural oils before serving.

The “Smooth vs Crunchy” proposition can just be as palatable as the peanut butter itself. It all boils down to your personal preferences, how you pair it up and what do you want to use it for. Some like it smooth simply because it is easier to spread and more visually appealing while crunchy peanut butter lovers crave its ‘nutty’ and ‘chewy’ thrills.

Martell XO (Extra Old) is instantly identifiable for its intense taste and bold, contemporary design, which are an expression of the audacity of Maison Martell. The House’s signature interpretation of the prestigious Grande Champagne terroir.

The power and intensity characteristic of Grande Champagne eaux-de-vie are uniquely revealed by the House’s specific double distillation of exclusively clear wines and ageing in barrels of fine-grained oak. Their forceful character is balanced by the elegance of eaux-de-vie from the rare Borderies cru, with which Maison Martell is historically associated.

This prestigious cognac has a forceful, charismatic personality reflected in the striking arch of it’s bottle.

Martell XO is thus instantly recognisable for its exceptional combination of power and finesse: on the nose, it is distinguished by a piquant, spicy sensation with notes of black and pink pepper and coriander, rounded out by rich aromas of fig, walnut and sandalwood; on the palate, intense notes of fig, red fruit and blackcurrant bud lead into an exceptionally long, robust finish.

The rich palate of the 18 Year Old is the result of a combination of several different cask types. The Glenlivet Master Distiller Alan Winchester has a wealth of quality casks to choose from when creating this complex expression, with American and European Oak, first and second fill, all playing their parts. European Oak imparts spicy hints and brings additional complexity. First-fill American Oak adds tropical fruitiness.

The 15 Year Old’s distinctive character is the result of selective maturation; a proportion of the spirit is matured in a selection of French Oak casks for a limited period, so as not to overpower the final result. The Glenlivet was one of the first distilleries to use French Oak in the whisky making process, a technique that has since been imitated by many others. Limousin Oak, which is cut in the Dordogne region of France, is often used to mature fine wines and cognacs. In the case of The Glenlivet, its low density allows the spirit to penetrate deep into the wood, imparting the expression’s distinctive spiciness. The French Oak also increases the intensity of the whisky, resulting in a richer and creamier finish.

Absolut Vodka is a Swedish vodka made exclusively from natural ingredients, and unlike some other vodkas, it doesn’t contain any added sugar. In fact Absolut is as clean as vodka can be. Still, it has a certain taste: Rich, full-bodied and complex, yet smooth and mellow with a distinct character of grain, followed by a hint of dried fruit.

Product History: In 1879, Lars Olsson Smith introduced the continuous distillation with which he made Absolut Rent Brännvin. Instead of the usual three or four times, the vodka was distilled an infinite number of times. 100 years later, it was reintroduced as Absolut. Just as then, Absolut is produced in Åhus, L.O. Smith’s birth town. Also the place where the wheat used for making the vodka is grown. And since the way Absolut is made won’t change, neither will the true taste of vodka
