July

The rhythm of summer is in full swing — the pace shifts, the windows stay open, and everything feels a little more relaxed. This month, we’re spotlighting a few favourites: a bold, smoky mezcal; our Hackney Essentials tote bag; and a trusty Kinto water bottle — perfect companions for taking small steps during ‘Plastic Free July’.


SHOP HIGHLIGHTS

El Camino del Pensador Espadín Mezcal -  An artisanal mezcal made in Oaxaca using traditional methods and organic agave. Expect gentle smoke, minerality, and bright herbal notes — killer in negronis and margaritas - even better on its own.

Hackney Essentials Tote Bag -  Our very own tote bags are made from sturdy Fairtrade cotton — simple, practical, and an ideal companion to reduce plastic during Plastic Free July and beyond. 

Kinto Active Water Bottle - Lightweight, durable, and designed to last, it’s made from recycled materials with a glass-like clarity. A simple, well-made essential — and a small step toward using less single-use plastic.
