Let's take a gander, shall we?

Food & Drink

As much as we love a silk robe or a beautiful necklace, nothing ever hits the spot quite like some tasty treats. This year, Jax has really hit the jackpot with these amazing, mouth watering delights.

  • Vegan Almond Butter Truffles by Makenu - Atlantic Beach

    Almond butter rice puffs, cinnamon, powdered sugar, rolled and dipped in Makenu Dark Chocolate. Simple ingredients, not so basic taste.

  • Count Shakula Growler by Green Room Brewing Company - Jacksonville Beach

  • Artisanal White Balsamic Vinegar by Atlantic Beach Urban Farms - Atlantic Beach

    This 5 year White Balsamic Vinegar is made by the family-run Acetaia Leonardi. It is produced exclusively from Trebbiano grapes and aged 5 years in oak barrels.

It is a best seller in France where is traditionally served over oysters!

  • Picnic Charcuterie Box by Honey and Brie - Jacksonville

Rich, featuring an underflow of smoke and roasted nut mixing with flavors of black currant, pear, acacia, lemon meringue pie and ground ginger with a hint of honey comb. Refined in texture and framed by well-knit aciditiy with a lasting mineral-tinged finish.

    This bottle has been ranked higher than Moet and Veuve, and comes in at a better price point! An excellent choice for a gift, or a show-stopper at any holiday party!

The moon’s luminous glow over the Balearic sea and the heat of the summer night adds to this bewitching trice.
