At pHure we take an environmentally friendly approach to the production of our products. We have installed solar panels to generate the electricity to run our still and the heat generated in cooling the distillate is used for warming the distillery. All of our ingredients are sourced from sustainable sources and composted after use. We try and ensure that all of our packaging is recyclable and wherever possible made from recycled material. We also reuse packaging in which goods are sent to us.

Back in the good old days, when I was a university student, I had a blog called adventuresinbeer (it no longer exists) and I was lucky enough to spend 4-months touring Europe in a camper van. I wrote about various micro brewers that I visited. The blog expanded into spirits and we covered gins, whisky, whiskeys, and rums.![]()

When we tested gins, we usually used "Schweppes" as our mixer. Back in 2019, when we last taste tested tonic water, we concluded it didn't overpower the taste of the gin.![]()

We've decided that it's time to update that tonic water taste test and we've gathered together a selection of tonics. We're going to add Fentimans and Double Dutch before we start.![]()

Are there any others that you'd recommend we added? ![]()

Initially, we're planning to start with the London dry gin and then move onto flavoured tonics with the fruited gins. A couple of people have previously posted about their favourite combinations, and we've found that useful so we'd welcome a bit more feedback.![]()

As a reminder incidentally, on Sunday, I'll be at the Craft & Maker's Market at the Mercure in Telford. The forecast is cloudy and cool with some rain in the afternoon but we're undercover with free parking.
Our next event will be on 15th February at the Telford Craft & Maker's Market in the Mercure Hotel (it's inside so it'll be dry and there's free parking). On 22nd, I'll be at Chesterfield Artisan Market, in the market square and Mum & Dad will be at Shrewsbury Craft & Maker's market in Shrewsbury Sports Village. ![]()

March is looking a bit quiet at the moment. We've Northwich market on 14th, Stafford Craft & Maker's Market on 21st and Chesterfield Artisan Market on 29th - this could change, of course!![]()

April 4th, we're at Newport Craft & Marker's market in Shropshire - at least Mum and Dad probably will be as I'm on a boys tour of Scotland's NC500. 12th April, we're at Shrewsbury. The 19th, I'll be at St. Asaph (Tweedmill) and Mum and Dad will be at Telford Mercure again. On 25th and 26th we'll be back at Codsall & Wergs Garden Centre (it's a nice garden centre anyway - and there's a decent cafe).![]()

For those interested in coffee, Lizard Lane's website (www.Lizardlane.co.uk) should be going live sometime next week - please don't remind me that I've been saying that now for two months. We are really getting close now - just a few final tweaks!
Well, it's been a good day at Codsall & Wergs Garden Centre. Busy, lots of nice people around. Been a good day for pHure; not so good for Lizard Lane.![]()

We've some new sizes in rums (200ml and 500ml bottles) Both went well. For coffee lovers we've also some new 100 gram trial packs that seem to be going down well.![]()

Mum and Dad will be running the stall Sunday whilst I spend the day trying to teach my son to ride a bike!
