The Chester Grosvenor flies the flag in a 'Best of British' gourmet lunch

Herefordshire’s Chase Distillery, which produces Chase Vodka made from potatoes, was voted the best in the world in 2010, beating 249 rivals from around the world.

Each bottle is numbered and signed by hand creating a truly artisan vodka.

An expert from Chase Distillery will be joined by a representative from British mixers company Fever-Tree to speak at the lunch.

Fever-tree produces top quality tonic water, ginger ale and soda water using natural ingredients such as quinine from the last remaining plantation of Cinchona tree in Congo.

The themed lunch take place in the hotel’s Michelin-starred restaurant, ‘Simon Radley at The Chester Grosvenor’ and costs £39.50 per person.

Lunch begins at 12.30pm with an aperitif on arrival, followed by a delicious two course meal and a glass of wine.
