Angus is the best
Angus is the best. He and his team quickly shipped my order to Manchester so my daughter there could ship it to America before she leaves the UK. We have our Brammle in hand already! Thank you!

Ooooo just love my extra virgin olive oil & chilli rapeseed oils in their gorgeous stacking jars! Kids have been warned not to dare cooking with them as they’re way too delicious for that!

Unfortunately writing on some of the bottles are smudged.
The paper wrapping around the bottles were ripped and crushed.
As this was for gifts I have had to remove the wrapping. I think it was due to poor packing.

Having been able to sample as many of the various vinegars and alcohols that we wanted to and therefore been able to choose the ones we wanted to buy. Also having Angus there telling us all about Demijohn how it was set up and how they sourced the ingredients for their products. I would highly recommend any one to pay them a visit, this was our second visit to Demijohn and will definitely be visiting again.
