It goes without saying that I am
passionate about food, wine and
rare books– pretty essential for
someone who runs a single family
office that is increasingly focusing on
investing in alternative assets such as
Bordeaux fine wines and rare books/
manuscripts. And like anyone with a
consuming interest, I am always quick
to spot references to my passion in the
most unlikely contexts.
My long-suffering friends and family
are now used to conversations which,
no matter what the starting the point,
always conclude with food and wine.
My only excuse is that the occasion is
usually lunch or supper at my place –
and naturally, it never pays dividends
to argue with the chef.
At a recent gathering, the guests
made a concerted effort to spike
my conversational guns by going for
literature in a big way in the mistaken
belief that fiction and food and wine
do not mix. A bad move - Because,
as you may have noticed for yourself,
fiction is not only about food and
wine, it’s practically addicted to it.
No wonder avid readers devour
books, even the e-type. There is
nothing like a mouth watering
description of a meal to get your
gastric juices into gear – especially
when the reader is trapped on a rush
hour train with the buffet car closed.
My theory is that books are sold
at railway stations and airports not
to while away the tedium of the
journey, but as a cunning marketing
ploy to persuade us to buy the stuff
that passes for food/wine on the
move. A really hungry person will eat
anything. Fortunately most fictional
food and wine is good. Comforting,
nostalgic, erotic, satisfying – a kind
of wish-fulfilment.
A novel without food/wine is thin
and unhealthy and our love for the
written menu starts early. If you are a
fan, you will know that Harry Potter
and friends, food is crucial, no not the
plot but certainly to the characters
well-being. Hogwart’s grand feasts,
wizard sweets, days filled with ice
cream sundaes and butterbeer – our
heroes have the gift of being able to
overload on indulgence, with no ill
effects.
Pity real life has consequences. In
fiction, unless your choice is social
realism a la Irvine Welsh, everybody
gets to gorge, and no one feels sick
afterwards. For those deliberately in
search of a good foodie read titles
can be helpful – Chocolat is certainly
abounding in chocolate. But treat book
covers with caution, Oranges Are Not
the Only Fruit is certainly about
For most people, investments are figures monitored on a graph.
For others, it’s about investing in a love and a passion. Richard Broughton
and Dipak Patel explore the world of alternative investments.
Dipak Patel, CEO of Venturescape, explains why it’s sometimes important
for investments to be ruled by the heart, and not just by the head.

he hat is the essential prop in assisting the wearer to broadcast what they want to say. Whether it is with family
and friends or out and about amongst strangers, according to Philip Wright, the hat can help complete the story.
Walter Wright was formed in 1889 on the wedding day of Walter and Minnie-Susan Wright which was a unique union of two long established hat families. Walter Wright was from a felt hat producing family originating from the Huguenots and settled in London after their expulsion from mainland Europe in the 17th century. Minnie-Susan was the eldest daughter of a Hertfordshire family whose origins were firmly established in the local straw hat industry.
The combined knowledge of Walter and Minnie-Susan, their experience and attention to detail rewarded them with success and a reputation that led them to become leading suppliers to the larger wholesalers and shops and, eventually, to the new concept of retail: the 'chain store', such as Marks and Spencer and later British Home Stores and John Lewis Partnership.
Renowned milliner Philip Wright speaks to Paul
Andrews about the colourful history of his family
business through the years.

anufacturers of brushes since the eighteenth century, GB Kent & Sons Ltd is one of the oldest and most established
companies in Great Britain. Kent Brushes (as they are now more commonly known) was founded in 1777 by William Kent during the reign of George III.
Kent holds a pre-eminent place in the history of brush making, with an unbroken record of excellence in the quality of its production which has been recognised by the granting of Royal Warrants for nine reigns.
The Kent family continued to run the company for six generations until 1932, when the last of the three Kent brothers passed away. This is when Mr Eric L.H Cosby, owner of Cosby Brushes Ltd, entered into an association with G.B Kent & Sons. This ushered in a new chapter in Kent's long history, and since then the company has been under the creative and dynamic lead of the Cosby family.
Today, Mr Alan H.L Cosby, grandson to Eric Cosby is the Managing Director and Chairman, with his wife, son and one of his three daughters working for the business. The company's headquarters were moved from London to their existing factory in Apsley, Hertfordshire on 6 February 1984. They continue to operate from there there to this day.
The company continues to retain the craftsmanship and unprecedented quality that is Kent's reputation. Even in todays fast moving, mass-producing assembly lines, Kent are proud to still be manufacturing many of their original brushes by hand.
Nevertheless, Kent Brushes is committed to developing and enhancing its products with every step they take. Kent harness the latest hi-tech manufacturing processes, whilst building on the time-honoured traditional methods to create the world's finest example of each and every brush that leaves their factory.

appetite, but not the fictional diet
of your average fruitarian. Conversely,
even the most unpromising texts may
conceal a juicy gem.
Crime fiction may not leap out as
a food/wine lover’s ideal, but if you
can wade through two pages of last
week’s last supper in the pathology
lab, you may find yourself joining
the sleuth for revelations across the
dinner tables. In my pre-pescatarian
days, I discovered the delights of
Bradenham ham, still available in
Harrods’s Food Hall, via a 1930’s
Dorothy L Sayers mystery.
My one note of cautions goes with
science fiction. Yes, there is food
and wine out there, but not as we
know it. It generally comes in italics
and a stream of unpronounceable
consonants. But whatever they
call it, it’s still coffee – the only
true pan galactic gargle blaster. I
can recommend at least one book
without a single reference to any
kind of food or wine whatsoever. Its
big, it’s bulky and The National Rail
Timetable is available now. The buffet
car symbols? Ignore them – they’re all
out to lunch.
Collecting rare books and fine wine
has always been a hobby (cunningly
disguised as investments to be perfectly
honest). Recently I have been trying
hard to imagine what it would be
like to join the new generation of the
digital reading revolution? Amazon and
its mediocre competitors have arrived
en masse with their digital fodder. In
the UK alone, e-books still only account
for a small percentage of the entire
book market. However, a quick recce
on the rush hour train, confirms that’s
changing quickly though.
One part of me thinks, why on
earth do we need a solution, when
there is clearly no problem? And the
other suggests, perhaps e-books
will sharpen our appreciation of
literature, and therefore crucially,
the real-thing? I’m sure you’ll agree
with me, technology is great when
it works. Imagine, getting to a
fantastic plot, only to be informed
your device is about to shut down
due to low battery or technical error.
I subscribe to the real thing every
time. Whilst I embrace technology,
and Venturescape focuses heavily
on the technology markets, I do find
it difficult to muster any form of
enthusiasm for e-books.
I cannot overcome the feeling that
the advent of digital reading age
with e-books will be like drinking fine
wine from a plastic cup. Technically,
the same kind of pleasurable
experience, but surely missing a
fundamental ingredient. Quite a
sobering thought.
www.venturescape.eu
Some have called it exotic;
others have termed it an
emotional investment, the
2010 World Wealth Report by Merrill
Lynch/Capgemini termed it ‘An
Investment of Passion’. Whatever
you call it, interest in fine wine as an
investment, is growing. The savvy
buyer of fine wines has long been
buying more than they needed.
But now, as investors look to
anticipate the inflationary effects of
Quantitative Easing, fine wines are
attracting more investors.
Traditionally, investing into fine
wines means the best vintage
Bordeaux wines, including Saint-
Emilion and Pomerol. The best known
Chateaux are Lafite Rothschild, Latour,
Haut-Brion, Margaux and Mouton
Rothschild. The climatic conditions of
this region are perfect for producing
consistent quality vintages. Historically,
returns from fine wines have been
solid and the price-volatility has been
low (less than 5% per annum*). Also,
the market is not subject to changes in
fashion or fads; the same wines that
were popular 200-years ago, will be
popular in 10-years time.
Nowadays, however, the investor is
attracted to the fact that the market is
less likely to be affected by systemic or
contagion risks and the fact that, unlike
paper-money, one characteristic of this
asset class is its perfect inverse supply-
curve. However good the vintage, once
bottled, the quantity of wine can only
reduce thereafter due to consumption.
This is particularly the case now given
the quantity of wines consumed in
the Far East and the recent trend since
2009 of en premiers being consumed,
especially by the nouveau rich in China.
“Decanter” Magazine has
calculated that the returns form fine
wines over the last 25-years is 8.7%
per annum. Nevertheless, wines should
be held as part of a well diversified

In the United States and the Far East the prestige of holding a Royal Warrant is recognised and the perception is that the Royal Family would not allow a company to use their Royal Arms unless that company excelled. As in many spheres, it is easier to be appreciated abroad than in one’s own country and, in the UK some consider it to be elitist and therefore, by
association, expensive. In reality, this could not be further from the truth, as all Warrant holding companies represent excellent value for the quality services and products that they supply. They achieved their reputation by serving the general public before supplying the Royal Households and the breadth and diversity of their customer base remains important to them.
Holding the Royal Warrant affords family businesses a great opportunity to display the Royal Coat of Arms which many believe provides them with a great commercial advantage. It is great to see so many family businesses on the list of Royal Warrant Holders – a real confirmation that family businesses offer an exemplary service and standards that are clearly recognised in the products and services that they offer.
oyal Warrants signify that a satisfactory trading arrangement is in place between a nominated person within a company, the
Grantee, and the Grantor - HM The Queen, HRH The Duke of Edinburgh or HRH The Prince of Wales.
Highly prized, it is great to see so many family business recipients as Royal Warrant Holders.
Companies can only apply for a Royal Warrant once they have supplied goods or services for at least five years to one of the three Grantors. A Royal Warrant is held for five years and reviewed after four which means that a company must maintain the exacting standards of service, consistency and reliability if it is to retain its Royal Warrant.
Those awarded the Royal Warrant of Appointment by HRH The Prince of Wales have for many years had to comply to an environmental and sustainability audit. This has recently been extended to all companies applying for a Royal Warrant, and from 2012 all Royal Warrant holders, both existing and new, will be required to complete the audit. There are just over 800 Royal Warrant holders representing a huge cross-section of trade and industry. They range from traditional craftspeople to global and multinational firms operating at the cutting edge of technology. They all share the same essential qualities through their provision of exemplary service, excellence in terms of products, trustworthiness and reliability.
Warrants are granted to named individuals, Grantees, who must personally ensure the Warrant is used correctly. Warrant holders may display the relevant Royal Arms and the legend ‘By Appointment’ on their products, premises, stationery, vehicles and advertising.
BY ROYAL APPOINTMENTPaul Andrews spoke to a number of family business Royal Warrant
holders to find out what it means to them.
