Luscombe Passionate Ginger Beer Named 'Drink Product of the Year'

Luscombe has always been renowned for its outstanding ginger beers and now it has been confirmed that they really are the very best of the best. Because Luscombe Passionate Ginger Beer has just been named Food Drink Devon's 'Drink Product of the Year' in the 2023 awards. 

Luscombe Passionate Ginger Beer is crafted using only the finest organic Peruvian fresh root ginger, milled on site at Luscombe's farm, so it better retains the heat. Blended with organic Sicilian lemons, carbonated Dartmoor spring water and organic passion fruit juice, it's absolutely perfect for those who are looking for something a little bit different, a little bit special. It sits alongside the world famous Luscombe Hot Ginger Beer and Cool Ginger Beer. 

Founder and owner, Gabriel David, is justifiably famed for his pursuit of perfection and no-compromise approach to creating an elegant and multi award-winning range of drinks that use the very finest organic ingredients and Dartmoor spring water.

On winning the award, Gabriel says: “We've always set out to create a range of ginger beers which stand apart from anything else you can drink and this award really does confirm this position. Taste is everything and we feel confident that Luscombe hits a pinnacle in this aspect.”

This incredible organic drink brings together the spice of ginger with the sweetness of passion fruit, offering a luxurious twist on a classic drink. Simply serve over ice, as Luscombe Passionate Ginger Beer has already been blended to perfection, and pair with a wide range of foods, both savoury and sweet.

Enjoy a Taste of Italy With Luscombe Sicilian Citrus Crush

Let the flavours of Luscombe's Sicilian Citrus Crush transport you to the stunning island beaches and beautiful architecture of Italy's largest island. 

A lightly sparkling citrus classic, this vibrant Sicilian Citrus Crush is lovingly crafted by Luscombe using only the carefully selected juice of organic Sicilian oranges and lemons grown in the volcanic soils of Mount Etna. 

Famed as some of the best in the world, Luscombe sources Sicilian oranges and lemons from farmers growing them in Sicily's rich soils.  

Having spent nine years living in Sicily, Luscombe's founder Gabriel knows the long days of glorious sunshine that give the fruit an intense sweetness to balance their natural acidity. In their home in Devon, Luscombe then expertly blends the juices with their own source of Dartmoor spring water, bringing a rounded depth to the zesty infusion of fresh citrus.  

Bursting with flavour and leaving the palate feeling nicely refreshed, Sicilian Citrus Crush is exquisite when paired with seafood, calamari, Dublin Bay prawns, shellfish, smoked salmon and egg dishes like scrambled egg, frittata and omelettes.

Originally created in honour of Gabriel's grandmother's favourite non-alcoholic tipple of orange juice and bitter lemon, Sicilian Citrus Crush is extremely versatile.  Just serve chilled over ice and enjoy, mix with your favourite premium spirit or use to elevate cocktails.  

Royal Warrant Holder, Luscombe's Sicilian Citrus Crush can be purchased from luscombe.co.uk in single serving bottles (12x27cl bottles, £26.50) or sharing bottles (6x74cl, £27.40). 

Like all the drinks in Luscombe's range Sicilian Citrus Crush contains nothing artificial, no artificial additives, sweeteners or concentrates and is gluten free and vegan friendly.  

Sicilian Citrus Crush is joined by other crushes in Luscombe's portfolio including Rhubarb Crush, Sparkling Apple Crush, Raspberry Crush and Lime Crush and won two stars at this year's Great Taste Awards.

Luscombe's exceptional tasting range includes premium organic fruit juices, crushes, bubblies, tonic waters and mixers plus a traditional organic Devon cider. They have been producing beautiful, lovingly crafted drinks on a farm in Devon since 1975.  

Gabriel has become renowned for his pursuit of perfection and no compromise approach to creating an elegant and multi award-winning range of drinks, which only use the very finest organic ingredients blended with Dartmoor spring water.  The team takes great pride that all of their drinks are made from gently pressed organic ingredients, picked at their ripest in the climates where they grow best.
