Our Suppliers

MARRBURY SMOKEHOUSE
Renowned for its luxury foods, Marrbury Smokehouse of Bargrennan is the number one supplier to some of the most elite Michelin starred chefs and hotels such as the world-famous Gleneagles Hotel in Perthshire where, in July 2005, it was Marrbury Smoked Salmon which was served at the banquet of HM Queen Elizabeth II to welcome the World Heads of States to the G8 Summit. 

Vincent usually delivers our smoked salmon on a Friday, leaving a heady waft of fish and aftershave! As a chef, Vincent is always interested to learn what Chris is up to in the kitchen.

GALLOWAY FARMHOUSE CHEESE
Galloway Farmhouse Cheese and the farm shop Ewe to You are run by Ted and Helen Brown who have built up a reputation for creating fine ewe’s milk Cairnsmore  hard cheese at their farm, Millairies, near Sorbie. 

Goat’s cheese was introduced in 2005 and has become very popular with some of Scotland’s finest hotels, restaurants and delicatessens and was declared “most innovative product” at the Savour the Flavours of Dumfries and Galloway Food Awards. 

On a recent visit to the farm, Ted was telling us that the goat’s cheese had won reserve champion at the Royal Highland Show. Well done, Helen and Ted – it’s always a pleasure to collect cheeses from your farm.

WIGWAM BAKERY
This is a small community project using organic stone-ground and organic unbleached flours, cold-pressed oils, sea salt, organic honey and fresh yeast in all their bread products. Additions of organic seeds and nuts and fresh, locally-grown herbs mean that the flavour is exceptional. 

Everything is hand-made using their own original recipes, alchemy and love! We adore the Wigwam company slogan which is “Live simply, so that others can simply live”.

What a fantastic ethos.

RUTHY’S SCONES
Bringing a fresh approach and new ideas to baking, Ruthy’s makes it easy to indulge in a taste of freshly baked luxury. Using the finest ingredients and the richest flavours, Ruthy’s outrageously tasty flavour combinations have won her several accolades – and her famous scones have won her lots of fans. 

Some of our bestsellers are Stem Ginger and Chocolate, Date and Walnut, Apricot and White Chocolate and Belgian Double Chocolate. 

Ruthy was runner-up in the Home Baker of the Year competition. Well done, Ruthy!

And here is some information about Ruth and how well she is doing. It really could not be happening to a nicer person. Good on yer, mate!
