Escape to Fersit: Crisp Autumn Walks, Warm Smiles, and Freshly Restocked Treats
There is a quiet magic in the air today. With the weather forecast looking wonderfully bright and clear, it is the perfect invitation to pull on your favourite boots, step outdoors, and immerse yourself in the breath taking beauty around Fersit.
As you wander through our stunning surroundings surrounded by sweeping Highland landscapes, vibrant autumn colours, and the peaceful wilderness, take a moment to pause. Sit and listen to the soothing melody of the nearby waterfall cascading over the rocks. Look up toward the sky and you might spot majestic buzzards soaring gracefully overhead against the autumn clouds. It’s a place designed for taking a deep breath, letting go of life's rush, and simply living in the moment.
Along the trails, keep an eye out for our happy free-ranging chickens going about their day, and check in on our busy bees, hard at work making their final preparations before winter sets in.
Warm Welcome & Wagging Tails
If we are around when you pass by, we’ll be sure to come over with a big smile to say hello! And if you are a dog lover, you are in for a special treat: our sweet Border Collie, Ember, will almost certainly run up to greet you. She is hyper-excited, deeply sensitive, and always ready to make a new friend. She’ll likely be carrying her favorite toy, patiently asking for just one throw!
Restocked at the Honesty Shed
After a refreshing stroll, make your way to our freshly restocked Honesty Shed to reward yourself. We’ve been hard at work in the kitchen preparing an extraordinary lineup of slow-fermented, artisanal bakes that taste like a warm hug on a crisp day.
🍞 Artisanal Highland Wh**ky Kouglof
Great things truly come to those who wait. Built upon a living liquid leaven and nurtured over a 48-hour slow fermentation, this traditional crown-shaped Kouglof develops a light, tangy depth and a feather-soft crumb. Inside this butter-enriched brioche are plump sultanas soaked in cask-aged Scottish Highland wh**ky, offering notes of smoky oak, honeyed malt, and dark fruit, all crowned with crunchy whole roasted almonds, a rich syrup soak, and a dusting of powdered sugar.
🍯 Honey Cake
A classic crafted with timeless tradition. Delicate, golden layers of sweet honey cake enriched with ground almonds are sandwiched with a luscious caramel pudding filling whipped with toffee, white chocolate, mascarpone, and real vanilla.
Autumn Wellness Note: Honey is nature's winter armor! Loaded with antioxidants and natural antimicrobial properties, pure honey helps soothe autumn sore throats, supports immune health during seasonal shifts, and provides an energy boost during outdoor adventures.
🥐 The Highland Almond Dream Croissant
Hours of precision go into this masterclass of texture. Built with our multi-flour signature dough and folded with 84% dry butter for shatteringly crisp layers, this croissant is split open to reveal a soul-warming filling of Vanilla Bean & Salted Caramel Pastry Cream blended with earthy maple sugar and fine ground almonds.
⛰️ Pistachio Summit
Reach the peak of pastry indulgence. Crafted over 24 hours with a long levain build and cold bulk fermentation, this golden, caramelized croissant carries a velvety filling of smooth 100% organic pistachio butter, white chocolate, and silky mascarpone.
🌀 Sourdough Cinnamon Roll with Vanilla Glaze
Patience makes perfection! Made over nearly 12 hours from rich sourdough brioche dough wrapped around buttery dark brown sugar and warm cinnamon, then drizzled generously with an aromatic pure vanilla bean glaze.
🍇 Pistachio & 70% Dark Chocolate Pain aux Raisins
Golden laminated croissant layers swirled with smooth pistachio cream, sweet sultanas, and rich 70% dark chocolate chips, finished off with a glistening maple sugar glaze and crushed pistachios.
🍋 Matcha Cap
A light, flaky pastry cap filled with smooth matcha patisserie cream, brightened up with fresh lemon zest and the subtle warmth of ground cardamom.
