To replace our daily posts, I’ll be posting a weekly round-up of our tasting videos that we have been shooting and posting to the product pages during the week. Of course we’ll be continuing to post five every week, one of which will be the feature on the weekly Video Round-Up posts, and the other four you can check out on the individual product pages, for which links are provided. Enjoy!
