Simon Hopkinson: I drank Sarson's vinegar from the bottle from a young age
My earliest memory is sucking a wine gum on Sidmouth beach and a wasp, attracted by the smell, flying into my mouth and stinging my inside lip. It was just horrendous.

The Spirits: smokin' not stirred
It looks like a urine sample. It smells like nights around a campfire in Glastonbury: grassy, ashy and funky, in a druidic sort of way. To taste, it has a surprising sourness, not dissimilar to cider vinegar, but it rounds out into an earthy, savoury bitterness. After a couple of sips, you feel the need to cough.
