FOR YOUR CHANCE TO WIN, ENTER VIA OUR WEBSITE. Closing date 30th September, 2022, unless otherwise stated. Terms and conditions apply. POP, FIZZ, CLINK! Anne-Marie Hurst, a qualified medical herbalist from Cornwall and founder of The Flower Miners, recently presented her botanical sparkling wine, Floreat on the popular television show Dragon’s Den. She says, “Being filmed for Dragon’s Den was an exciting experience and a great way of letting consumers know about the brand.” As an experienced drinks industry director, Anne-Marie pitched the wine to the dragons for investment to support marketing. To date, the entrepreneur has seen success with the product in the wellness sector after establishing a national drinks distributor at the start of 2020 to provide it to high-end spa hotels and wedding venues. She tells us, “Floreat offers a first into the drinks market and I’m excited to continue to delight new customers with its unique blend of herbs, flowers and grapes.” Each bottle of Floreat, launched in 2019 and produced in Cornwall, contains more than 20 fresh organic rose petals, 50 lime flowers, 75 milk thistle seeds, 40 violets and a pinch of St John’s wort and horsetail, plus it’s suitable for vegans and vegetarians. Floreat provides drinkers with a wine that’s lower in alcohol and calories than a typical bottle of champagne (5.4% ABV and 35 calories per 100ml compared to 12.5% ABV and 72 calories per 100ml for champagne.) During the last decade, people are watching what they drink far more, some because they’re the designated driver at an event, others because they’re counting the calories and many who want to avoid hangovers. Floreat is at the forefront of incorporating medical-grade herbs within wine and Anne-Marie has been able to patent this concept. It’s designed to relax guests and provide a drinking experience that’s more than just flavour, focusing on mood and stress relief whilst gently removing the negative effects of alcohol. After all, the success of any good event is largely linked to guests feeling relaxed, comfortable and socially engaged with hosts putting a great deal of thought into the drinks on offer.
