Provisions of Central Otago

     

October 2004

The New Zealand gastronomic bible – Cuisine Magazine - has featured us not once but twice in their truly great current September issue.

Lauraine Jacobs has been very supportive and we owe her a huge thank you for voting us Best Food at the Taste Otago Food and Wine Festival held in Dunedin in February.  I think it was our strawberry + peppercorn jam and our Cherries in Pinot Noir syrup that won her over.

Sally Butters also deserves our gratitude for featuring our products in her column in the August issue of House & Garden and also Victoria Wells at the new and gorgeously styled Dish magazine.  And we loved Kate Fraser’s witty words about our walnut + wild thyme shortbread in her column in The Christchurch Press,

“Shortbread with herbs!  Goodness knows what the Duke of Argyle would make of this, but if he is a man of taste he will love it.”

We have received emails and phonecalls from all over the country from individuals wanting to order and outlets wanting to stock our products.  We are learning the ropes of the food distribution network slowly and continue to welcome your suggestions for potential outlets.
