A range of products from Heart Smoke & Soal Ltd, experts in the art of outdoor cooking.

Angus & Oink Tandoori Tikka Gold This tandoori brings with it the colour of India, bright with a fascinating vibrancy from the best ingredient the team can source, with a fresh, rich aroma that will drive the senses wild. Simply coat chicken for the oven or charcoal grill and you’ll be delighted with the savoury abundance, the astonishing colours and smells of the tandoor.

Namibian Hardwood Namibian hardwood is a premium firewood that has been naturally dried under the hot African sun.

This high-density hardwood is extremely dry with less than 2% moisture content which generates long lasting coals with twice as much heat as kiln-dried firewood.

Namibian hardwood is perfect for barbe ues, fire pits, pi a ovens and woodburners.

The Salt Journey This unique selection box of eight wonderful salts from around the world gives you a unique culinary experience, and includes a variety of very popular and unusual seasonings, from Himalayan Pink Salt to Peruvian Andes Sun Salt.

Go ahead and spice up your next dish with this delicious addition to your spice rack.

Laconiko Garlic Olive Oil Hot Smoke Whisky Barrel Smoking Chips These premium quality wood chips have a superior flavour for food on charcoal or gas barbeques. The timber is sourced sustainably from woodlands across Dorset, often due to storm damage or an orchard crop rotation scheme. The wood is kiln-dried utilising waste hot air that is produced at a local biomass plant.

Kadai Firebowls These beautiful and functional barbe ue fire bowls are handmade from recycled oil drums by family workshops in India. Hand-cut metal plates are riveted in the traditional way for strength and durability and feature the same drop handles as the Original Kadais, and with the Gothic High and Low Stands you can get the best out of your Kadai.

One of their most popular and versatile olive oils, this works perfectly with pasta, on baked vegetables, sautéing seafood and vegetables, and even as part of a marinade in any recipe where garlic is an ingredient. This would include dishes such as shrimp scampi, garlic bread, or garlic mashed potatoes.

THE ART

of giving

Find the perfect gift with a difference with help from the art lovers at Whistlefish.

E

very year the festive season hurtles towards us at an increasingly alarming rate. As summer fades into the distance, September sees seasonal adornments seep into shop windows. You’re thinking ‘already Christmas is coming around again’, and the perennial problem of finding the right gift for friends and loved ones arises. With that in mind, have you considered buying artwork as a Christmas gift? Art is far more than just a stocking-filler, and is a more affordable gift idea than you might think.

Art makes such a unique idea for a Christmas gift. Half the pleasure anyone gets from receiving a present is tearing off the gift-wrap and being surprised. Who expects a beautiful piece of art at Christmas? The colours, shapes and form jump out at the recipient as the gift-wrap falls to the floor and the box is opened.

The right art gift should not only complement the person it's intended for, it should complement their living space too. This shouldn't create conflict because people tend to surround themselves with a home décor that fits their personal style.

Giving art as a Christmas present offers you the opportunity not only to celebrate the person you care about but also their home. An artwork received for Christmas can enhance a living space, and subtly alter the lighting and focus of the room.

Everyone loves receiving a gift that completes a room. Artwork fulfils this purpose admirably.

Whistlefish simply love art, whether it’s the feeling of excitement when you find that special piece that you just know will light up your living space, or the peaceful contentment you get when you furnish your room with the perfect picture. They are extremely proud of their artwork and they put their heart and soul into each print they produce.

No half

MEASURES The ocean is so much more than a source of inspiration for artist, Mark Richards.

T

here is no doubt that Mark Richards loves the ocean. Yet, he was born as far from it as you can get in England! As a teenager growing up in the idlands, he saw surfing for the first time on a rainy Saturday afternoon TV sport show; the 1977 Pipeline Masters! In a moment of absolute clarity, he committed right then and there to a life involved in surfing and the ocean.

He moved to Cornwall in 1985 after completing his engineering degree. He has surfed all over Cornwall and around the world since then. Mark now lives on the cliff overlooking the sea in Perranporth – a source of constant inspiration as well as a great place to surf. In recent years he’s rekindled his passion for open-water swimming, and not being one to do things by half, completed his swim around the entire coast of Cornwall in 2018. As if that wasn’t impressive enough, in 2019 he became the first man to swim from ornwall to the Isles of Scilly! urfing and swimming give ark a close-up and personal perspective on not only waves, but seabed features, cliffs, remote stretches of coastline and islands. His art and furniture are inspired by all of these elements. His mixed-media work uses beautiful hardwoods (from sustainable sources) and epoxy resin to evoke the beauty and feeling of the ocean. any of his pieces are based on specific locations such as the Isles of Scilly, Cornish beaches and surf spots.

Much of Mark’s work is made to commission; he loves to make bespoke coffee tables and wall art to evoke coastal locations that are special to his customers. His reputation as something of a perfectionist is growing, which is why he has sold pieces as far afield as ew ork. f you’re interested, Mark would love to hear from you to discuss your coastal inspiration.

AN ANGLING

e r u t n e v d a

A Cornwall Fishing Adventure, guided by local Cornish angler, Justin Keight, is just the thing for anyone hoping to give the gift of experience.

H

aving been fishing for more than years, ornishman ustin eight still gets excited whenever he sees the water. n his words ’m like a child playing first one to see the sea ’ As the founder of ornwall ishing Adventures, ustin is a mine of angling knowledge, and he loves nothing more than imparting his experience on budding anglers of all ages. e does this via guided fishing tours around the coast of ornwall, experiences aimed at those who wish to dip their toes into the wonderful world of sea angling. ach tour includes bait and tackle all set-up and ready to go and uite often as long as the fish are biting ustin will cook up the day’s catch there and then on his portable smoker.

We all know somebody who either loves fishing, or has always talked about giving it a go, but for those of us who know little about the sport, these individuals can be very hard to buy for. With that in mind, ustin’s guided experience vouchers are the perfect gift for those keen to get hooked on this most cathartic of pastimes. Alternatively, if you know an avid angler that’s always keen to try the latest gear and tackle whose tackle box is in constant need of replenishment then ornwall ishing Adventures’ brand new subscription boxes could be just the ticket

A subscription delivers four boxes a year, or alternatively can be bought as one-off ’ purchases. ach is packed full of tackle items including hooks, line, tools, and lures, as well as a whole host of other useful and innovative products designed for the modern angler. ere at Cornwall Living we have a number of keen fisher-folk, and take it from us nothing beats a brand new piece of fishing tackle, no matter a whole box full f you’re interested to find out more, be it for a loved one, as a treat to yourself, or both, be sure to visit the ornwall ishing Adventures website.
