Just like us, British artisan makers have gone Jubilee crazy this year, launching all kinds of fantastic patriotic food and drink – scroll down to see our pick of the best!
The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Weekend is the perfect time to support British producers and hunt down something really special for your celebrations, so fly those flags high and join in the festivities!
ENJOY A JUBILEE PICNIC FROM DUKESHILL
To celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Weekend, which takes place from 2nd to 5th June, why not enjoy a luxury picnic from Dukeshill? The company has everything you need to make the Platinum Jubilee Weekend a special one with the highest quality foods produced by the expert team and wonderful artisan partners.
Dukeshill was founded over thirty years ago, with a vision of producing the very best hams, cured the old fashioned way - where flavour and texture are more important than speed or yield. Much has changed over the years; the business has more staff, it has outgrown its original cowshed and it now produces a much larger range of cured meats, salamis, sausages, charcuterie and even puddings at its site in Shropshire.
The business has also added a range of exciting complementary products, championing small artisan producers that share its commitment and passion. One thing hasn’t changed, however: Dukeshill’s uncompromising attitude towards quality. Dukeshill’s commitment to quality led it to be selected by some of the top London Food Halls to produce their hams, and in 2003 it was awarded the ultimate accolade – a Royal Warrant to supply hams to HM The Queen.
