Adnams opens in Hadleigh

In what has become more like a charge of the kitchen brigade than a slow march, Adnams has opened its eigth Cellar and Kitchen Store in the high street, within weeks of opening in Stamford, Lincolnshire and Saffron Walden, Essex.

Mixing its eclectic and all too buyable range of kitchenware with its carefully crafted wine store it has turned an unattractive empty store into a vibrant and busy premises, with the promise of shop-based wine tastings.

You could even get yourself a little seasonal mystery. Four times a year, for a variety of prices, the company will send you a mystery case of the buyer's selections, complete with tasting notes

And you won't have to heave your wine purchases around as they do deliver to your door - so much easier to get carried away when there's no lifting and carrying. Already the holders of the East of England Wine Merchant of the Year, and the national Large Independent Merchant of the Year, Adnams is proud of its stock of "truly individual" wines found by buyers "driven by passion".

Whatever drives them, Hadleigh high street is so much more attractive now they're here and the Chamber of Commerce is delighted they are keen to get involved with the town.
