Small Batch has been one of British bartenders’ favourite bourbons and, with online sales having tripled in the past year, it’s a ‘go-to’ spirit as people have sought to replicate bourbon-based cocktails – such as the Old Fashioned or Manhattan – that they used to enjoy out on the town.

Husband-and-wife teams Nicola and Dougie Lampkin MBE and Alexa and Chris Ives were passionate about supporting and buying from local producers and after getting together to enjoy a few gins one new year’s eve, decided to turn personal passion into a business by creating Cotton Gin. 

Lovingly crafted using the finest botanicals: Yorkshire Watercress, English Coriander, hand-foraged local spruce, rowan berries, nettle leaves and mint make for a fragrant and herbaceous gin. Cotton Gin will instantly transport you to a sunny English garden and rolling green meadows.

Forever Living Hydrating Serum

Forever Living, the aloe vera company has launched a Hydrating Serum combining four types of hyaluronic acid to boost hydration. Combined with aloe vera and other skin-loving ingredients such as white tea, mimosa bark, tamarind, and snow mushroom this hydrating serum helps shield against environmental stressors, and minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 

Each of the four types of hyaluronic acid (HA) play a key role in retaining hydration. Hyaluronic acid is an intense skin moisturiser that holds 1,000 times its weight in water. Combined, all four types of hyaluronic acid work together to replenish water on the surface of skin and retain moisture from the inside, whilst also improving elasticity and resulting in the appearance of visibly plump skin. 

As part of Forever’s targeted skincare, this formula applies easily, absorbs quickly, and has an exceptionally light feel. Hydrating Serum helps skin feel plump and hydrated while reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and providing an added layer of protection against environmental stressors. 

Price £34 for 50mls available from Forever Living.
