Bath last eve! 🧡

Scroll right for the final stop on the World Cocktail Atlas book tour and a peach of a night.

As you will, see I climbed a ladder (in my head, a beanstalk).

Thank you for bathing the Abbey in the colours of my cocktail book. Most thoughtful.

I send adoration with all the orange in my glowing core.

Gratitude to for stellar cocktails (impeccable El Presidentes pictured) plus Paul at the bar for his piping hot naughtiness.

was a haven of delight, delish dishes, ace wine list and the Noix liqueur pictured here is fuel to get you home feeling like you’ve swallowed Valhalla.

A pint of Old Green Tree at The Old Green Tree pub is the very last of these sacred snaps, see how it glows, equal to a prime Hobbiton pour from the Green Dragon.

Thanks for dinner and the photos here of me you mighty thunderdude.

Well, Bath. It seems we love one another. What shall we do about it?



🍺 Cheers for the pub recco.

Sublime whether slicing through the stodgy splendour of noodles & dumplings or zesting its spice-blade across sushi and smoked salmon, Gruner Veltliner is Austria’s liquid gemstone!

I’m off for lunch with a buddy to paddle into this one.

Who could it be?

Thanks for sending the latest 2011 Comtes de Champagne Rosé (12.5%).

100% Grand Cru fruit harvested in 2011, an early ripening year with low Springtime rainfall, vines flexing to deliver top quality.

Thanks to a generous sq**rt of red wine, the colour has a deep peach-rose glow and the profile is also intriguingly intense.

Aromas of pastry and almond (thanks to more than ten years lees ageing) a taut coil of lemon rind around fleshy strawberries, pink grapefruit zap and a savoury subtlety (think fragrant mushrooms).

I savoured the rich red berry power of this wine, viscosity contrasting superbly with elegant bubbles coursing from its core. A heady halo of redcurrant, pink grapefruit around a sense of glossy sundried tomato depth.

My wife and I celebrate our wedding anniversary each year on 7th September with a bottle of Taittinger Comtes de Champagne so it was lovely to raise an early glass of this rare rosé Champagne to our 21st coming up in September.

Total treat, bon weekend one and all.

Fab festival sampling the latest vino from

Discovery of the night was “Né sous X”, a blend of near-lost local varieties including Pédebernade 1, Dubosc 1 & 2, Chacolis et Negrets de Banhars - a red with the soul of black cherry yoghurt, served cool delivering top to toe fruity refreshment.

Penultimate photo taking a bow with his exceptional band - I obeyed the stern request not to photograph or film while playing - epic music, the performance of dreams from ole featherfingers.

Magic to see different varieties of vines thoughout the town proudly on display in the heart of a community with roots in the vineyards attracting the world’s finest jazz musicians to their celebrations. Warmly recommend a visit if you’re a music and wine fan like me.



Thanks for help with the trip 🇫🇷
