The first thing you need to know about Jaz and Jul’s is that it is a veritable chocolate mecca. As soon as you walk in the door you are greeted with the sweet, rich aroma of hot chocolate and on a cold winter’s day, it is a welcome smell.
Chocolate artisans Jaz and Jul’s have been in business for eight years as traders in all things cocoa. They focus on drinking chocolate which is ethically sourced from around the world. But around two years ago the pair of entrepreneurs decided to open a flagship store and Islington was the perfect location.

About Vegan Life
December is a tough act to follow and I do feel a little sorry for January, which seems to have the reputation as the dullest, coldest and most bleak month of the year; if the months of the year were being picked to play netball, January would probably be picked last…
Traditionally, January is the month when people decide it’s time for a change and put their house on the market, change their job, dye their hair green or make ambitious New Year’s resolutions. Every January of my adult life I have tried, in vain, to change a habit or routine, like ridding myself of my unhealthy tea addiction or seeing friends more often. This year, with the help of a couple of articles in this issue, I have decided that this January I am not going to change a single thing — my motto this January is going to be ‘new year, same me’.
We have some wonderful articles to help boost your mood, and your confidence, this January. Surrounded with pressure to lose weight and go on a health kick to get into shape for summer we have focused on body positivity in this issue. We have spoken to vegan body positive warrior Mica Day and argue that exercise should be a tool for enhancing mental health and wellbeing as much as physical health. To tie in with our special feature, Fat Gay Vegan has also written a fantastic piece on body shaming in the vegan sphere, which I enjoyed immensely.
January is also a great month for reflecting on how far we have come as a community. More people than ever are coming to the realisation that the way that we are treating most animals is wrong and I have a tingling, excited feeling about what the coming year has in store for us. 2018 is going to be the year of the vegans.
I hope that you enjoy the issue and, remember to buy your Vegan Life Live tickets for next month!
