In the midst of this Brexit chaos we invite you to take a step back and pour yourself a young, innovative English whisky whilst listening to the hard won wisdom of an oft-overlooked songwriting master. Cotswold Distillery meet Roy Harper!

We are beyond thrilled to welcome some delicious new pork products to our range in store! Porcus is a small farm business nestling on the moors above the town of Todmorden in the South Pennines. Following the success of their outstanding sausages, bacon and cured meats Porcus have created a range of pork-based meals in a jar that have already been a huge hit! 

We're thrilled to say that we're now stockists of Little Lodge Confectionery here at Whitmore & White! Made locally to us in Mickle Trafford, Cheshire, Little Lodge was founded by Kim Lodge in 2016 after many years of baking and making sweet treats for friends and family.
