Exclusive offer: The Trumpet Shop

2 Mins

Vintage artwork, reclaimed cinema seats and a theatrical soundtrack set the scene. Stepping into The Trumpet Shop is like stepping back in time – a time of impeccable taste and indulgence. George Street’s newest addition brings together fine wine and inspiring artwork, with special tasting sessions and ever-changing exhibitions to suit even the most sophisticated of palates.

Vintage menu art

Currently on show is The Art of the Cocktail, 1930s-1950s, in collaboration with Love Menu Art, a New York company that specialises in vintage menu prints. If you like what you see, you can take home a piece. Prices start at just £18 for an unframed print, or from £48 framed.

Wine

If you have a nose for quality, take a grand tour of Italy. The current boutique selection of wines at The Trumpet Shop has a distinctly Italian flavour with prices from £10 a bottle. Look out for other carefully curated collections coming soon. Modern classics such as Malbec, Prosecco and New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc are also available.

Champagne

Toast a special occasion with a bottle of Billecart Salmon Champagne from the family-owned Champagne house that’s been producing fine fizz for over 200 years. Prices from £42 per bottle.

Gin

Browse and sample a handpicked selection of gin, many distilled right here in Scotland. Prices start at £32.

Gifts

If you’re looking to treat someone, choose from locally ground coffee, truffle oil, aged balsamic vinegar and more. Top of our wishlist is the hardback book, On the Menu by Nicholas Lander, a history of the menu and its importance as ‘the world’s favourite piece of paper, available for £30.
