Flagstone Wines Launches Refreshing ‘Poetry’ Rosé

What better time to crack open a few bottles of perfectly chilled rosé, spend some time with friends and family and let the worries from the year disappear, as the holiday season kicks off with perfect summer evenings here in Jozi.

LUX* Mauritius – The Ultimate Lux Experience

No Comments

Luxury is not just a price tag. It’s about beauty, experiences and moments that you’ll hold onto forever… and at LUX* Belle Mare and LUX* Grand Gaube in Mauritius, you’ll do just that, and more. There are beach resorts and then there’s LUX*. LUX* Belle Mare is situated on the east coast of Mauritius, in Belle Mare, roughly an hour’s drive from the airport. The resort is set on the island’s widest stretch of beach and, in my opinion, home to one of the most beautiful pearly white beaches I have ever seen. Driving up to the entrance of LUX* Belle Mare, you are immediately overwhelmed by the beauty surrounding it, and enveloped into an experience that plucks you from your everyday life and drops you into a world that demands you stop and take a moment.

One of our fave foods (peanut butter) combined with one of our fave nougat brands, Sally Williams makes for happy days indeed! The memory of taking a bite out of mom’s delicious peanut butter and jam sandwich or sneaking a teaspoon of peanut butter right out of the jar (we all do it, don’t we?) peanut butter is a taste that is so filled with childhood nostalgia and evokes the indulgent memories of delicious snack moments. It is this kind of reminiscing that inspired the Sally Williams team to their newest and most indulgent flavour yet; peanut butter. While making herself a piece of toast topped with peanut butter and syrup the Sally William’s concept chef, experienced this very sense of deja vu she bit into her lunchtime treat and was immediately transported…
