 Another new flavour!
After developing a new Chai flavour with some of my coffee shop customers we are pleased to announce our new Chai flavoured syrup (Chai is a natural flavour using spiced herbs and tea extracts) in the 250ml bottles.
How do you use it?
Ideally it goes in a latté to give a warm spiced flavour but it is very versatile and can be poured in to an ordinary coffee, or even cold with ice and milk- but at the moment the coffee shops seem to be offering it in frothy hot milk with a shot of coffee or chocolate.
 TASTE OF THE WEST AWARDS 2009
PRODUCT JUDGING RESULTS ANNOUNCED
Producers from Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Gloucestershire, Somerset and Wiltshire are celebrating success in the South West’s most prestigious food and drink awards, the Taste of the West Awards 2009, sponsored for the eleventh year by Musgrave Retail Partners GB.
Malmesbury Syrups is a winner- Twice! with a silver award for its 250ml Ginger Syrup and its 1 litre Toffee. Both flavours are ideal for flavouring coffee and whilst still relatively new, are both becoming best sellers- The Ginger is almost the most frequently ordered on-line whilst Toffee is popular with coffee shops.

John Lewis Bluewater is the latest John Lewis / Waitrose branch to carry the syrups and after a short time of sampling the sales in one week have required replenishment TWICE!
Also - new wholesaler for the coffee shops Cream Supplies has started offering the 1 litre bottles- in fact due to the efficient way they operate they are even better value than ordering from us so be sure to check out their site in case its not just syrups you need and can get all you require from them? But if you do- make sure its Malmesbury Syrups you’re ordering! not some product that doesn’t come from the Cotswolds! www.creamsupplies.com
Also - new Chai flavour is on the way and will be available soon - ideal for making a Chai Latte.
 Malmesbury Syrups is ready for the New Year with some new products and some old favourites (well about 6 months old).
Already we have taken orders for the Frappes° which were popular last spring.
Again we can offer all the Frappes in 330ml and in the 3 x 330ml gift box. But, in addition a 1 litre bottle with pump is now available.
Are you a coffee shop? (by that we mean are you the owner/manager?) If so why not visit our trade pages and register for information on ordering wholesale. We can supply you either via our wholesalers or direct. The choice is yours.

  We won GOLD
We are celebrating after winning a prestigious Great Taste Award. Malmesbury Syrups has been presented with a much-desired two star Gold Great Taste Award for its Amaretto Flavoured coffee/cooking syrup.
The Great Taste Awards judging standards, devised by the Guild of Fine Food, are the most rigorous in the UK. Every entry is blind tasted by teams of experts. By the time it earns gold, it will have been assessed by at least three different teams. All the judges’ comments are made available to producers. If no gold is awarded, they need to know how and why.
This year’s judges include Alex James, farmer, journalist and bass player with Blur, Mark Hix, the chef’s chef, Charles Campion from Evening Standard & The Independent, Tom Parker-Bowles of UKTV Food’s Market Kitchen and national food journalist Fiona Sims.
Coffee Shops - New range of coffee flavouring syrups from the Cotswolds
 Launching this autumn through Ethical Addictions Specialty Coffee (EA)! Ethical Additions, which supplies a great range of ethically sourced coffees, will now be offering Taylerson’s Malmesbury Syrups from the Cotswolds.
The growing recent trend is to have flavouring in your coffee. But the syrups have tended to come from France or Italy, until now, the choice just got better. Not only can you have an exceptional coffee direct from the farms of Africa, you can add a flavour of the Cotswolds, made using the finest ingredients. But don’t take our word for it. Great Taste Award 2008 winning Amaretto flavoured syrup is just one of the range alongside Ginger, Vanilla, Cinnamon, Hazelnut and Caramel. These flavours are available to buy in Harrods and John Lewis, but now available to coffee shops, hotels and restaurants. Coffee shops, hotels and restaurants can now source their beverage requirements from the Cotswolds.
New Flavour—natural Ginger
launched
It’s here, and we sold out the first weekend we went to
support one of our outlets.
The Ginger has natural flavour and colouring making it
look a little like traditional lemonade, being slightly
cloudy.
Great in coffee but also just perfect for your Chinese
meal recipes and ideal on melon. Make sure you order!
