Celebrating the county’s Food, Drink and Hospitality businesses in 2021

Featured in:
August 2021

The 2021 competition will be launched in our September issue so we need our readers and online followers to get out and about in the next weeks to sample county cafés,
pubs, restaurants, staycation venues, bakers, brewers, wine producers and farm shops.

What better invitation do you need to visit those businesses you believe have triumphed despite the continuing challenges of the past months, providing exemplary service, innovative products
and the finest of hospitality.

Thank you to our sponsors who have continued to support Taste of Excellence and of course to our judges whose services we will be calling upon shortly.

Meanwhile, this is a consumer led competition and we will need your nominations.

Nomination forms will be included within our forthcoming issue and online so get your favourites ready.
