in the Shropshire countryside
Award-winning smokehouse
operates from the village of Clunbury near to the market town
of Ludlow in Shropshire. For us at The Organic Smokehouse, the
smoking of produce is less about commercial food production and
more about the continuance of a centuries old craft. All of our
smoking is carried out without any mechanical intervention using
the traditional 'draft method' with air-dried, naturally fallen,
Shropshire Oak. It is a slow process, giving a greater depth of
flavour to our products.

Welsh Farm Organics:
Tyn Y Fron, is a traditional
Welsh long house set amongst the gentle Montgomeryshire hills,
where their stock graze freely. It was here that their dream was
born, which eventually became Welsh Farm Organics. Jonathan, having
farmed on the family farm in the Dugwm Valley all his life, noticed
a gap in the market for more affordable organic meat, so in 2001
the obtained Organic status. To back this up, they began planning
for a processing unit back in July 2001. The lack of availability
of good quality organic Welsh beef and lamb was apparent to Jonathan
as a farmer and he felt the public/consumer deserved to have full
traceability of their meat, to experience meat tasting as it should
and be able to buy it without paying the usual, onerous, Organic
premium. Thus Welsh Farm Organics was born.
Jonathan and Sally say
that at Welsh Farm Organics the aim is to provide the consumer
with good quality Welsh beef, pork and lamb, straight from the
farm, with 100% traceability and the added bonus of organic status.
This means no fertilisers or chemicals are used in connection
with the rearing of stock and no overuse of antibiotics. Everything
is strictly regulated which is better for you, the consumer, the
environment, and of course, the beautiful land that Jonathan and
Sally are proud to call home.
Jonathan and Sally would
like to extend the following invitation "Come and see us,
and if you can't come and see us, do the next best thing and choose
Welsh Farm Organics for all your Organic beef, lamb and pork".
Villar Wines
John Villar Wines At John
Villar Wines we pride ourselves on wines of high quality
and character. For many years it has been our mission to seek
out, learn and advice on not so ordinary wines, those with
that extra special flavour that makes them so different from all
the others. Unlike the big inexpensive brands that flood the UK
supermarkets, the high quality wines are made in small quantities
by the world's best winemakers. We are therefore confident that
you will love the huge variety of wines we offer as much as we
love passing on our knowledge and advice about wines to you,
our valued customer.
Whirley Wines:
In the nineties I spent
seven years managing Bibendum restaurant, where, working with
one of the best wine lists and menus in the UK, I learnt the importance
of matching food and wines and how much fun this can be. In 1999
I left to work a vintage in Barossa, South Australia and travel
the vineyards of Australia in an old Ford Falcon Station wagon,
from Mudgee New South Wales across to The Great Southern and Margaret
River vineyards of Western Australia. This “hands on”
experience was paramount in understanding the extraordinary range
of varietals available in Australia as well as the amazing quality
of wines coming out of these individual vineyards.
Enjoy your time browsing
through the website and you will realise how exciting the development
of sourcing individual wines from passionate, small winemakers
in Australia and The Pacific North west coast of Americacan be
for your restaurant or private cellar.Simon Newson
