SOME started baking their own bread during the first lockdown while others got around to DIY projects they had previously been putting off. Many people found new interests or projects to fill up their time while they were stuck at home but a Burtonwood couple also found a new calling. Ellis Roberts and Toni Molyneux learnt how to roast coffee, originally just as a hobby, and now they have a dedicated workshop at their Green Jones Brow home and a growing list of around 60 customers, including many who order weekly. Toni, 26, said: It started as a hobby at first, roasting for ourselves and family and friends but the feedback we received was great and that’s when Ellis came up with the idea of Burtonwood Coffee Co.

While the South American powerhouse was rewarded in our competition, the Global Malbec Masters showed that other countries can hold their own when it comes to making exciting wines from this grape, writes

If you were in doubt as to the power of brand Malbec, then look at the range of medallists in this year’s competition. Not surprisingly Argentina dominates – this is, after all, the country that made Malbec famous. It elevated a sidelined French grape into an international superstar, but witness where it’s now grown, and the styles of wine it produces. We even tasted a ‘white Malbec’, then, as the sampling continued, tried reds from Turkey, Spain, and South Africa, all made with Malbec, despite those countries having no history of handling the grape.
