I Collected our unique Immersive blend coffee earlier from Isla , owner of the fabulous Lochside roasters coffee company in Birsay, please check out their newly released winter range .
This delicious blend will be served with home bakes at tomorrow’s inaugural bake and blether . Local businesses working together is such a great thing.
