I've been a professional drinks writer, broadcaster, presenter and author for 17 years, working across a wide variety of publications and media outlets, from The Daily Telegraph, The I, Decanter, Wallpaper, as well as being a regular drinks expert on Channel 4 Sunday Brunch for the past 10 years. I have specialised in spirits but also consider wine, beer and no/lo as areas of expertise.
