Our Organic Drinks
When the Duke of Cambridge opened its doors in 1998, there was no organic draft ale available, so we persuaded two London breweries to become certified and brew a range of beers and lagers for us. The heroic Freedom and Pitfield Breweries have continued to supply us from the very beginning. Now we have four real ales, three lagers and one cider on draft, as well as a fantastic range of bottled beers and ciders.
Our winelist offers a superb range of organic and biodynamic wines from both Old and New Worlds. Familiar grapes and regions nestle alongside rarities from hidden corners of the wine-making world, including some exciting examples from the UK. Anything we buy from abroad is shipped and never air freighted. When researching the environmental impact of wines from Europe versus those from the New World, we were surprised to find that wine driven to England from Italy, for example, causes more pollution per bottle than that which is shipped over from South Africa and New Zealand.
We have a great array of organic spirits and liqueurs, including sloe gin, amaretto and vodkas flavoured with elderflower, blackcurrant and even horseradish - ideal for a Bloody Mary! There are two organic whiskies alongside a selection of classic Single Malts.
Our range of non-alcoholic organic drinks are truly delicious – from traditional English lemonade to elderflower bubbly and hot and spicy ginger beer. All our teas and coffees are Fairtrade as well as organic.
