Last week, our latest Members’ offering headed to Tiptree’s Bond Street Tearoom in Chelmsford to bring some festive spirit to our on-going virtual Member events.
Tiptree, who are one of the Club’s long-standing Partners, treated Members to an online festive cocktail-making experience using a range of their delicious jams, spreads and spirits.
Bowlers, Jamie Porter and Sam Cook also joined the Tiptree team, where there was also a chance to hear more about the world-renowned company.
Enjoy some of Tiptree’s range during Christmas this year with their stores open across the county up until Christmas. View the range and their opening hours online – here.
