Tidal Rum

Our story begins by the sea. It’s where we both grew up – Harry in Scotland by St. Cyrus beach  and Ben on the island of Jersey. We both have early memories of coastal adventures with our friends, exploring the tidal edge and racing the waves to discover secret islands and sandbanks, only revealed at low tide. That sense of adventure and freedom that the sea awakens in all of us is something we wanted to capture in the subtle coastal flavours of Tidal Rum.

Gusbourne

Official 2024 drinks provider for the Agenda Festival. 

“Making exceptional wine takes craftsmanship, respect for nature… and uncompromising attention to detail.” Andrew Weeber, Gusbourne Founder

From the moment we planted our first vines in 2004, our vision has been to create the finest vintage wines using grapes exclusively from our own vineyards.

We grow the highest quality Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier grapes across the Gusbourne Estate, with 60 hectares in Appledore, Kent and 30 hectares next to the Goodwood Estate in West Sussex. These predominantly Burgundian clones yield smaller volumes of intensely flavourful fruit, which thrive in our unique microclimates. This exceptional produce is the vital first ingredient in making our award-winning sparkling wines, all crafted using the traditional method.

FINE ENGLISH MULTI AWARD WINNING WINE

Sprigster Drinks

Sprigster Drinks grew out of the vibrant flavours of our English country garden. We wanted to offer a proper grown-up, alcohol-free drink to guests at our acclaimed country restaurant, Pythouse Kitchen Garden. So, we started plucking scented seasonal sprigs from our colourful patch and making drinks to go with our delicious and nutritious dishes.

Our blend of all-natural ingredients combined to create a sophisticated and deeply satisfying non-alc. aperitif. We realised we’d hit upon a taste experience that our guests loved. Nicknaming our flavourful drink ‘Sprigster’, we set about crafting the perfect alternative aperitif.

Bonas MacFarlane

Bonas MacFarlane is a leading provider of tutors, who include postgraduate students, Oxbridge academics, published novelists, professional artists, well known musicians and actors, economists, barristers and senior teachers.

Given the narrow but specialist nature of A Levels; and considering that the senior generation was the last to receive a classical education, lifelong learners approach us to fill in some gaps – perhaps with a crash course in psychology, or some culture and language of a country they are to visit. Others simply wish to find out from a young, involved scholar what’s going on in their degree subject. And others revive musical skills. Many find the cognitive challenge of lifelong learning, one to one or with friends (online or with the tutor coming to the home) to be enriching for its own sake.

For grandparents wanting to involve themselves, we explain the basics of their grandchild’s curriculum and provide tutoring materials and content.
