2026, and here we are!

So, we have of course the wine, beer and spirits and some cheeses and charcuterie alongside Martin with his prints and cards all in the shop now.

Martin opens the shop about 8:30 most mornings - Tue thru Sat either Debbie or I will be in the shop from about 10 till 5:30. You can purchase any item while any of us are in the shop but if you have questions about our stock best to visit in the afternoons.

Current stock is mainly built on old favourites but new stock is arriving all the time so do come and see.  We're also starting to think about our events for this year - watch this space!  

Design Your Own Wine Tasting Evening
 
Ever thought about hosting a wine tasting evening, but weren’t sure where to start? We can help you create an experience that’s completely tailored to you, whether you want to host at home or at Added Ingredients. 
 
From selecting the wines and providing tasting notes, to supplying the glasses and thoughtfully paired food, we’re as hands-on or as hands-off as you’d like. If you’d prefer to organise your own food, that’s absolutely fine too.
 
Whether it’s a relaxed evening with friends or a special celebration, we’ll help you design a wine tasting that fits your style perfectly. We can be on hand or simply provide you with all the things you need.
 
To find out more about your options simply pop into the shop and ask to speak to Jill or Debbie, or email us. 

 



6th February 2026 - we celebrated the Syrah/Shiraz grape 

What a night! 🍷 Four amazing wines, loads of cheese, charcuterie (and yes, a scotch egg or two - why not!), and some seriously lively debates about Syrah vs Shiraz and how they’re made. Loved seeing everyone get stuck in!

Next up: our Chilean Evening – 6th March at 7pm. Come for the wine, stay for the chat!

A few words from Jill...

I’m back! As many of you know, I closed the shop in 2022 due to ill health. After taking the  time I needed and thankfully making a full recovery, I’m so happy to say I’m back and so is Added Ingredients. Why return? Simply, I missed it -  my customers, the conversations, the laughter, and sharing the joy of good food and wine. 

I love being part of the Abingdon community, hosting events, discovering new flavours, and chatting about what makes a meal or a bottle of wine special. There’s something wonderful about having a friendly welcoming space were people can come together.

This next chapter is about growing thoughtfully, supporting local craftspeople, and continuing to showcase the food and wine we love.

Thank you for your support — I can’t wait to welcome you back.
