DEVON COVE www.devoncove.co.uk Devon Cove's Director and Founder, Leanne Carr, gives us the lowdown. Do you have a signature product? Our Cove Damson Liqueur is an absolute favourite with our customers. It’s made from our Gold award-winning Cove Vodka, so is exceptionally smooth and it has an incredible fruity burst from the damsons. People often comment that it is too good and the bottle never lasts long enough. We recommend serving simply over ice, or it is absolutely delicious in a glass of bubbly. We call it a Cove Royale, Devon’s take on a Kir Royale. What sets Devon Cove apart from the rest? Our Cove Vodka is exceptionally smooth and made from King Edward potatoes which are lovingly grown in rich soil and the Atlantic sea air on my family farm overlooking Hope Cove, Devon. Our vodka and liqueurs are distinctly smooth and delicious and capture the essence of our county. Who doesn’t love the sea and fresh home-grown food? We were recently awarded ‘Gold’ at the Taste of the West Awards for our luxuriously smooth
Cove Vodka and our divinely fruity Cove Damson Liqueur. Do you have any new products? We are very excited to have launched Cove Rum in August. It’s a handcrafted British Rum with hints of orange blossom, smooth caramel, creamy light spice and a lick of tobacco and rich vanilla to finish. Our oakaged golden rum is made in small batches from molasses, oak from our family farm overlooking Hope Cove, Quince’s Devon Honey, Salcombe Dairy Cocoa Nibs and Devonia Spring Water. Absolutely scrumptious and best sipped over ice. We also love a cocktail by the sea. That sounds delicious! Have you got anything else in the pipeline? Following the launch of our Rum, we will be launching a range of rum-based Cove Cocktail Kits to add to our current range of vodkabased cocktail kits. These are available to buy on our website and are incredibly popular
for birthday gifts, anniversaries, date nights and just to spread a bit of cheer. Our Rum will feature in our Christmas Eve boxes for grownups and we also have more new products in development ready to launch next year...
