If you are looking for a fantastic Christmas drink this year, then I urge you to try out the new Black Moth Truffle Vodka – the world’s finest truffle infused vodka.
Just look at that bottle, it is incredibly sophisticated and delectable looking, with its sleek black bottle with a beautiful silver moth design, it really will make the perfect gift for your loved ones. And trust me, the taste is something else! You can without a doubt taste pure luxury. It is warm and smooth, making it the perfect drink for this coming festive season.
Unlike other vodka’s, Black Moth is five times distilled and then three times filtered! It is then infused with the distinct flavour of Perigord Truffles; which makes it very palatable with its delicate flavouring.
Dr Paul Thomas, the truffle expert behind Black Moth’s distinctive taste says:-
“Black Moth marries the worlds of gastronomy and premium spirits to create a product that is completely unique and, most importantly, authentic. Black Moth is the spirit of choice for food connoisseurs and will make the ideal gift for those who appreciate quality produce that has been carefully sourced and made with love.”
You can drink this splendid Black Moth Truffle Vodka in many ways. Serve it straight, poured over ice, to your guests after dinner (but, remember not to drink to much as it has an alcohol volume of 40 per cent!). Or make up one of the many exclusive cocktails that have been developed on the Black Moth site. These cocktails bring out the best the truffle vodka, designed to allow the well balanced and subtle character come through. I have tried out a couple of cocktails, and would like to share my favourite with you – The Black Moth Rose Fizz - one of the most sophisticated cocktails I have had!
You will need:-
• 30ml Black Moth vodka
• 15ml fresh lemon juice
• 2x strawberries
• 1x bar-spoon vanilla sugar
• 8ml rose liqueur
• Champagne to top
And to garnish:
• Sugar rim,
• 2x rose petals
• strawberry on the rim
Method:
Rim the glass with caster sugar for the garnish, and then muddle strawberries in the bottom of the shaker. Add all ingredients except for champagne into the cocktail shaker with ice and shake. Fine-strain into the champagne flute. Top with champagne and atomize rose liqueur over the drink before adding rose petals and a strawberry garnish
Black Moth Vodka is available to buy at Selfridges, Gerry’s Wine and Spirits Soho, The Whiskey Exchange and http://www.blackmothvodka.com. It is priced at £39.95.
When a product forces you to change your daily routine, it has to be special.
The Braun series 7 is one such product. I have always been a traditional razor type of guy, taking the occasional cuts and shave rashes in my stride.
I was then asked to test the most advanced shaver ever released by Braun, The new Series 7. (one word review, if you are in a hurry? Stonking!)
The razor I owned has now been binned….
This electric shaver has it all - ease of use, high performance and a sense of longevity.
Featuring Braun’s unique OptiFoil™ Technology - Ergonomically placed holes allow more hair to get into the foil, but less skin - delivering Braun’s closest and most comfortable shave ever.
How about this? 10,000 sonic micro-vibrations per stroke help deliver a faster, smoother shave. This is achieved using Braun’s trademark Sonic Technologyand a massive 790 cc.
Personalisation modes mean you can chose from Sensitive, Normal & Intensive. The sensitive mode took away the après shave rash that I had accepted all these years.
The top model (790 cc) comes with Braun’s most advanced Clean&Renew™ system to date, which kills 99.9% of germs in the shaver and keeps it feeling like new everyday. This cleans, lubricates, dries and charges the shaver at the touch of a button
The unique SensoFlex™ system gives you 6 times the flexibility of a regular foil head. It automatically adapts to every individual’s facial contours regardless of shape – for an individually optimized shave.
The new Braun Series 7 is available at Boots, Amazon, Argos, larger supermarkets & other good electrical retailers. Visit http://www.braun.com/uk for more information.
Originally priced at £299.99 RRP, the promotional Christmas price is £199.99 RRP. The offer runs between 20th October – 28th December 2010, at selected retailers.
Quite simply, the most advanced and best performing electric shaver out there. The perfect gift for him this year.
I have changed my morning routine and haven’t looked back– will you?

With Christmas approaching and winter with it, why not treat your dog to an Equafleece. These are basically fleece jumpers and coats made from an insulating material called Polartec® and are designed especially for dogs. They are incredibly warm, light in weight, easy to wear, machine washable but above all 100% water repellent when worn close to the body.
The Equafleece will in fact act as a drying tool for an already wet dog. These ingenious coats come in a wide variety of colours and don’t have any postage or packaging to pay.
We recently received an Equafleece jumper to try out on our little Jack Russell. After we measured our doggie (there’s a very clear video on the website as to how to measure your dog to get the right size garment), we received our Equafleece – it was extremely lightweight, cosy and fit beautifully. In fact our little dog doesn’t want us to take it off her!
These are a fantastic gift at £17.
Buy yours on the Equafleece website.
