New products: Bonzer dispensers, Whitley Neill gin, Filta Group temperature screening and more

A look at the latest food, drink and equipment to hit the market.

 

The key to the hygiene credentials of a disposable cup dispenser is largely down to the quality of the gasket, which seals the rim of the cup and ensures that just one cup is dispensed at a time. Mitchell & Cooper brand Bonzer supplies a range of dispensers, from traditional gravity-fed options to elevated options that can be installed vertically or horizontally. Both come with a food-grade silicone gasket designed to withstand daily usage.

Hebridean island distillery Wild Thyme Spirits has launched an Old Tom-style gin, called Colonsay Gin Cait Sith (pronounced Caught Shee).

The gin (40% ABV) is drier than a Dutch Genever, but sweeter than a London Dry, with hints of orange, pink grapefruit and vanilla.
