And to top it off there is the beautiful Spa day candle in a stunning purple pastel glass jar . This rich and luxurious candle with blends of earthy patchouli and green top notes gives you an amazing 45 hours burning time to just kick back, relax and enjoy.

FILBERTS OF DORSET


Filberts of Dorset have done it again! We all have that someone who is Impossible to buy for, but Filberts beautiful gift sets make it easy. We love this one as it is for gardeners and Allotmenteers, it contains a muscle rub and all gardeners know how much this is needed, it also contains garden twine and bee friendly seed! We also really love this Gardeners Gift Tin, This contains Hand Salve, Propolis Salve and bee friendly seeds , and the tin can then be used for seed storage. Both sets make excellent stocking fillers and Gardener Gifts.

DORSET GIN COMPANY


We are so proud to be Dorset ladies living in Dorset, where we can boast some exceptional producers. One of our favourites has to be the DORSET GIN COMPANY. Their PURBECK GIN is outstanding . A beautiful smooth crafted gin distilled in stunning Dorset using organic botanicals and triple filtered and CARBON NEUTRAL! It's smooth yet vibrant, with a perfect balance of botanicals that dance on the palate, leaving a crisp, refreshing finish that's both complex and satisfying. Gin just doesn't get any better than that!

ISACC CIDER


Some say it's something in the Dorset air, others say it's witchcraft. But we know it's because we are surrounded by incredible dedicated growers and brewers like ISACC CIDER that Dorset ciders taste so good. ISSAC CIDER make their fabulous ciders from apples grown and picked in orchards near Bridport and then the process starts. First pressing fresh apples to extract their juice, then fermenting it to create a crisp, aromatic cider that captures the essence of autumn in every sip.

ISAAC Cider produces award winning Ciders that are crafted to suit every taste. But which one will be your favourite? Fruity Anti – gravity a medium dry still cider 5% or will it be Refraction, a medium sweet sparkling cider? Maybe it will be Calculus, a beautiful medium dry sparkling or Alchemy Medium Sparking.


We just love these gift sets that make great Christmas presents that are available now at the farm shop or you can buy your favourite ISAAC CIDER by the case online.

If you are having a party over the Christmas period or New Year, we suggest you grab a 3ltr or 5lt pouch of ANTI-GRAVITY. You can also get their spice pouch to make mulled cider! That's proper Dorset.


But don't despair if you're driving because ISAAC also has OPTICS APPLE JUICE available at the farm shop 100% freshly squeezed and it's delicious!
