That dreadful moment has come

December 12, 2006

I always hate doing this, but it has to be done.

We can’t take any more orders for delivery this side of Christmas. Our order book is full – well the order book is never full, but we have orders for everything that we can smoke between now and Christmas.

Sorry.

But we are taking orders for delivery in 2007!

Slow Food Visit

December 8, 2006

This Sunday, December 10th, the Cork Convivium of Slow Food is having its festive lunch at Deasy’s Pub in Ring near Clonakilty; on their way they will be calling in on us at Inchybridge for a pre-lunch taster. I am just hoping that the weather forecasters have got their predictions all wrong for Sunday!

If anyone is interested in joining in last minute, phone Simone at 021 4505819.

We are madly smoking 7 days a week around the clock, so a brief interlude with maybe just a petite coup of a gorgeous wine from Febvre Wine Merchants will be most welcome!

December 8th and two new shops opening!

December 7, 2006

There are two new speciality food shops opening tomorrow in Ireland, and I am delighted that they are both carrying a range of our products!

The first is a newURRU shop in Mallow which will bring to that town some of the excellence that Bandonians have been raving about for the last couple of years. Willie, brother of Ruth in Bandon, will bring his experience as a Graphic Designer and the benefits of a six month course at Ballymaloe to bear on this exciting project.

The second is in Gorey, Co. Wexford where Christian and Heather Pauritsch open the doors at Partridge Lodge, 93 Main Street, Gorey.

And it’s 10% off Day tomorrow in Clonakity!

A plethora of PR!

Three mentions in two days in the Irish Examiner last Friday and Saturday! And we are featured in an article in December’s Food and Wine Magazine! Must dash out and buy a copy!!
