Blackbeard the Pirate Captain

The feared and hated sea-robber Blackbeard is probably the most famous pirate captain of all time. Born in Bristol, he is said to have set fire to his hair and long black beard to intimidate his opponents during his frequent encounters. In his last battle, pirate lore claims he continued fighting despite sustaining five gun shots and twenty sword wounds before he was finally decapitated and thrown overboard. All manner of booty including jewels and exotic spices were seized from hapless victims. The West Country pirates’ intimate knowledge of local coasts, sheltered creeks and hidden anchorages helped them bring their pillage secretly ashore.

Ahoy, me Hearties! These prized Spicy Chilli Cheese Straws have a pleasant chilli ‘hit’, but rest assured... ...they won’t blow your head off.

Did you know?

Chillies originate from South and Central America. There are known to be over 400 species of chillies in existence. European explorers of the 1500’s introduced these culinary delights to the rest of the world and their popularity quickly spread to most cultures. There are several farms right here in the West Country commercially growing chillies, which thanks to its oceanic influence flourish in the temperate climate.
