The Taster Magazine

The Taster is a unique new food & drink magazine, full of intriguing artwork and engaging, informative articles. It gives fascinating glimpses into our culinary past; interesting thoughts about its present; and a few wild ideas about its future. Eclectic and amusing, The Taster is wholly inclusive: we love all foods, and write about them with passion, zest and humour.

We provide suggestions for seasonal dishes and red-letter days (Christmas, Valentine's etc); a comprehensive calendar of food festivals; regular news reviews; tricksy foodie crossword and even food-based horoscopes (very rude and funny). We do care (very much) about health and good ingredients, but just to even the score up, our globe-trotting DJ columnist reports on the best (or worst) street/junkfood he can find. We champion small, independent food producers and growers, telling their stories in a regular Q&A; and we publish brilliant excerpts from the very best food novels, autobiographies, cookbooks and unclassifiable one-offs.

If you are a gourmet, glutton, molecular gastronomist or just an open-minded person with a passing interest in souffles, you'll find this journal the perfect antidote to stressy hosting guides or 1000 Recipes for Chicken. The Taster is a unique publication for people who like food.
