4. Uhuru Whisky

5. For Wine: Faustino Rioja

The Lowdown: Produced using Tempranillo, Graciano and Mazuelo, the three classic Rioja grape varieties. Graciano provides a very lively colour and high acidity; Mazuelo flavour and abundant tannin, both together with Tempranillo are the perfect blends for long- ageing wines. True to Rioja, true to its origins.
