The Voyage So Far...

Also onboard the @blueschoonercompany ship Gallant

Also onboard the @blueschoonercompany ship Gallant earlier this year, was our coffee! We are proud to be working with @yallahcoffee to deliver to you an exceptional bean, perfectly roasted.
-
The beans are supplied by @caravelacoffee from the Las Brisas region in Tolima, Colombia where 15 producers have contributed to this outstanding lot. With approximately 50% of the crop grown under shade, we know biodiversity is high and the need for fertilisation is low. We also know the price each farmer received was 27.5% higher than the market price.
-
The coffee was shipped from the port of Santa Marta and sailed over 4000 nautical miles to Cornwall, with a carbon footprint close to zero. Docking just a few miles down the road, we unloaded the sacks by hand and brought the coffee straight to the roastery.
-
The proof of all this goodness is really in the tasting! Our coffee is still available in our shop and our cargo boxes. We'd struggle to live without our daily grind! See link in our bio or go to https://bit.ly/2WNFgA9

With the planned postal strikes looming, we will stop taking orders for Christmas tomorrow at midnight (14th Dec). This will allow us to have them packed and posted to arrive with you, if all goes well, by the 21st of December.

If you were interested in giving a gift of delicious almonds, olive oil, chocolate, wine, panela or coffee that supports our adventures in shipping cargo under sail, don't hesitate. Order via the link in our bio or https://bit.ly/2WNFgA9

With just a few weeks till the end of the year, we decided to make up a Christmas Cargo Box as our ultimate festive gift. Taste the treasures from our adventures in shipping, from both sides of the Atlantic Ocean.
-
Each box contains a beautiful ceramic bottle filled with our finest extra virgin olive oil, olives, and almonds from Portugal, along with coffee, chocolate, and Panela sugar all shipped by sail from across the Atlantic. As an extra treat, you can add either honey or wine (or both) to a box. We will include a photo postcard and a personal message and can post the box direct to anywhere in the UK. Each cargo box includes a saving of 25% on the retail value of the goods inside.
-
We only have a handful of the Christmas Cargo Boxes with Wine so don’t hesitate, order via the link in our bio or go to www.bit.ly/newdawncargo

Earlier this year the @blueschoonercompany ship Ga

Earlier this year the @blueschoonercompany ship Gallant delivered us a consignment of panela, which traveled over 4000 nautical miles from Colombia, pretty much emission-free. But what is panela?
-
Panela is raw, unrefined cane sugar that has been traditionally handmade for centuries by dehydrating raw sugarcane juice over low heat. Because it is made in such a simple way, it retails the flavourful and nutrient-rich molasses from sugarcane. The molasses in panela gives it its distinct flavour as well as some naturally occurring vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.
-
We've been impressed with all the wonderful ways our panela has been transformed, from cakes to cocktails and @farrobakery 's panela and bourbon custard tart, and panela and vanila soft serve... mmmm mmmm.
-
Panela is still available in our shop and our cargo boxes. An excellent gift for the foodies out there. See link in our bio or go to https://bit.ly/2WNFgA9

Last weekend we hosted sail cargo practitioners and enthusiasts old and new, from near and far, in an old house in deepest darkest Cornwall - for the first @sailcargoalliance meeting since 2019.
-
The planets aligned for a beautiful time together. We left feeling exceptionally well nourished, and not just by the incredible food and magic location. This weekend has bolstered our resolve to do what we do, to feel supported in it, and to see that we are not alone. This seems like a rare thing in today’s world, but it is just deeply human - we need our communities, and to connect IRL. So thank you to all who participated and were able to show up for each other.
-
The Sail Cargo Alliance is: “An alliance of organisations who share a passion for sial-shipped cargo, working together with shared ethics to create a healthy transport culture that promotes the preservation of the environment for future generations.”

If you would like to learn more about it and how to participate do sign up for the SCA newsletter. Link in bio.

This weekend we are gathering the @sailcargoallian

This weekend we are gathering the @sailcargoalliance in Cornwall. It has been 3 years since our last meeting so we're very excited to host a room full of real-life sail cargo people.
-
We still have a handful of tickets available for the Saturday night Supper where we have teamed up with @lolas_cornwall to showcase what delicious wonders can be made by combining produce sourced locally and from across the oceans, shipped by sail.
-
We invite you to join us in the main hall at Prussia Cove, once home to the 18th-century shipwrecker and smuggler John Carter, the “King of Prussia”. Already attending the supper are sailors, ship owners and sail cargo activists from near and far, ready to share tales from their adventures on the high seas.
-
Tickets cost £60 and include entertainment along with your welcome drink, aperitif and menu expertly crafted by Lolas’ Tim and Louise. All dietary requirements are catered for. See link in bio to book.

Due to unfortunate circumstances, our voyage with

Due to unfortunate circumstances, our voyage with the sailing vessel Ide Min for cargo from Portugal is postponed until spring 2023.
-
Two weeks ago, we were very excited to meet the Ide Min in Fowey, Cornwall. The ship and crew had completed the first leg of our European sail cargo voyage, which would have taken them from the Netherlands to Portugal and back, but the captain had a tough decision to make.

Sailing vessel Ide Min left Amsterdam yesterday. The ship was in refit for the last 4 months to be transformed from a passenger ship to a sailing cargo ship. The team at Kaap de Groene Hoop reconfigured the mess room into a cargo hold, rebuilding the galley, a new deckhouse and cargo hatch.
-
This is the ship's first cargo voyage and we are excited to see so much hard work and planning go into the next phase of action - sailing!

We are pleased to announce our collaboration with Dutch company Kaap Kargo and their newly acquired ship, sail cargo schooner Ide Min. For the last months, the team in Amsterdam have been working round the clock to have the ship ready to sail their first cargo contract for us, to Portugal and back.
-
This morning they departed Amsterdam! See our stories for their progress so far.

"Basically what I produce is Carolino rice, althou

"Basically what I produce is Carolino rice, although there is a small amount of Agulha rice, but this region is better for producing Carolino. Within the Carolino‘s there are various types we have one type that is particular to this region, the Ariete, an older cultivar.
-
This particular type of Carolino is stickier and is better for dishes such as rice pudding or a rice dish where you need a lot of starch and stickiness but it is a good rice, in general, it’s versatile and can be used for many different types of dishes which is why it is the most popular rice that I produce." - Jorge Vieira, Garça Branca

Rice isn’t grown in the UK. Nearly all of the rice we eat comes from India and Pakistan, which means a voyage by container ship of at least 6400 nautical miles via the Suez Canal. That is a lot of fuel miles; travelling over a quarter way around our planet Earth!
-
Hence our excitement to find Jorje and to offer you his beautiful rice. Not only can we support his work and his care for the land, but we can be satisfied in knowing that our rice has been transported overseas just 630 nautical miles and by a ship powered by the wind in its sails.
-
There is still time to order your rice for the next delivery in October - see the link in our bio.

It may surprise you to know that the Portuguese are the largest consumers of rice in Europe, eating 15 – 16 KG of rice per person per year, compared with the 4 – 5 KG European average. Portugal produces around 60% of the total rice that they consume per year, which is why it is rare to find this particular type of rice anywhere else.
-
To learn more about our sail cargo rice read our interview with the grower, Jorge Vieira in our Journal, see the link in our bio.
-
The proof is in the tasting! There is still time to order for the next shipment arriving in October. Collect from the vessel itself or we can deliver by post.

Around this time last year @kerry_photo went on as

Meet Jorge Viera, he farms the rice that we delive

Meet Jorge Viera, he farms the rice that we deliver to you by sailing ship. Sail-cargo is a unique opportunity to support small family run farms like his, to sell to customers across borders and oceans. More from our conversation with Jorge to follow 💙

We compared our Pre-Order prices for our sail-ship

We compared our Pre-Order prices for our sail-shipped rice with equally premium rice from our local supermarkets.
-
Shipping by sail is so much more costly than conventional transport that we had to rethink our whole supply chain in order to deliver a product in line with our values. We want a win-win situation for all involved from soil to serving, and this includes offering you a competitively priced product. By doing so we can show that another way is possible.
-
To do this we focus on short supply chains: farmer - sailor - trader - you, and ask you to buy in larger volumes, such as 5 KG rather than 1 KG, or enough to last till the next ship comes in. Pre-ordering also helps us carry less risk on cargo that might not be sold or might need storing for ages. All this means we can bring down our margin of the overall cost while still paying the farmer and ship well.

Looking forward to receiving more of these custom-made table bottles (for our delicious olive oil)!
-
Each bottle is made from local clay and handpainted by artisans Rebelo and Barrico in the traditional 'Coimbra style'. Their workshop is in the same Portuguese village as our pioneering olive oil producer Marije of Passeite, who noticed how as a result of the pandemic, their orders were reduced. Together we have collaborated on a unique design, with @blueschoonercompany ship Gallant taking centre stage.
-
These beautiful bottles are a great way to dispense boxed olive oil. They hold 375ml and come empty with a cork lid and pourer. Available to order through the link in bio, to arrive in October.
