The Pale and Interesting Box
Our Future is the name of this South African Sauvignon Blanc, made by the Black-owned, female-owned Amandla winery. It’s a crisp, zesty wine, with notes of passion fruit, pineapple & lemon.
Accompanying the wine, but by no means lesser, is a bag of white chocolate shards from The Chocolate Detective. Their creamy vanilla sweetness is set off with the addition of fennel and cardamom and each bar is dusted with a light gold lustre.
So this is decadence, but it’s a new template.
We put a lot of thought into picking the right products for our collection of gift boxes, trying to strike the balance between good value for you and a luxurious treat for your gift recipient.
We also love that that every item, in every box, is made by a company who are dedicated to changing the world for the better.
The Amandla Winery is is entirely owned and run by black women. Although that’s sadly still a rarity, the women behind Amandla have created a showcase for their own expertise and knowledge. They also run a bursary scheme for the families of grape-farm workers, helping to finance education at all levels.
The Chocolate Detective is the nom-du-chocolat of Chantal Cody. She’s an expert in her craft, but is also trying to make changes in the often-unethical chocolate industry. Chantal is committed to a transparent supply chain, choosing only ethical growers. She’s also committed to the beans she uses being processed in cocoa-growing countries, meaning more money stays in the economies of developing nations.
