French ambassador of fine spirits lands in Israel: Wine, snacks, cookies, cheese, ice cream, and yogurt freshen up the scene

Generous Gin, Paneco

A distinguished brand adorned with French elegance, expands its virtual and physical presence in Israel, introducing its decorated gin line.

The avant-garde series of Generous Gin, blending chic and quality, presently encompasses four magnificent bottles as anticipated - Bio Organic, floral and robust (NIS 159), Generous Gin Purple, uniquely infused with grape polyphenols and anthocyanins, "Original" with a natural base of juniper, mandarin, red pepper, jasmine, and sumac, and also the marvelous "Azure," drawing inspiration from the picturesque Côte d'Azur and dispersing an excellent aroma of blossoms and growth, perfect for a summer mix.

Chips, Hunter Foods

A snack brand from the United Arab Emirates, lands in Israel through AGAT&D, bringing positive vibes and noticeable vibrancy to the truly cool shelves of marketing networks.

The initial lineup includes, among others, black truffle chips, black truffle and parmesan, white truffle, and Porcini (superb), black caviar (exotic), goose liver, four cheeses (excellent), and even pesto-parmesan - all based on potatoes (what else).

The company boasts of "innovative and better snacks," and the result is not far from the truth, especially considering the relatively thick cut, excellent crunchiness, and sufficiently original seasoning to intrigue, and good enough to demolish.

Pick-Up, Bahlsen

The newest addition to the German cookie family, lands in the country through Leiman Schlussel, fitting perfectly on the sweet and crispy temptation shelves.

It's essentially a particularly successful sandwich of two biscuits with three fillings between them - milk chocolate, chocolate cream, and milk cream and dark chocolate. The packages contain five units (28 grams each) wrapped separately, preserving freshness and crunchiness, while the combination itself benefits from the good butteriness of the envelope and even better creaminess of the chocolate - in dunking or as it is, of course.

These are slices of Pecorino cheese, made from sheep's milk, with an excellent texture and a present taste and a personality that strengthens sandwiches and toasts and stands well on its own for direct snacking, on the go, as it is. Price: NIS 23.21-34.90.

Apart from Pecorino, the series also includes slices of Mozzarella (NIS 18.70-23.10), smoked Mozzarella slices (NIS 18.90-23.10), excellent for pizzas, for example, Gouda slices (NIS 21.90-26), calling for a loud toast, aged Gouda slices (NIS 21.90-40.77), and Cheddar slices (NIS 21.90-40.77), melting and tasty.

Karamel Sutra Core Ice Cream, Ben & Jerry's

Winter (Israeli, let's not exaggerate) is still here occasionally, but the international ice cream company is already gearing up for the hot season of 2024.

These intentions led to a renewed launch of Caramel Strudel from its excellent core series, a fine blend of caramel ice cream and chocolate ice cream chunks, good pieces of fudge, and also that famous core, rightfully so, in caramel flavor, all the way to an impressive cone clearance, in minimal time, of course.

GO Yogurt in Carton, Tnuva

The active sports brand of the food company, expands refrigerator shelves and launches for the first time half-liter carton drinks (with a resealable cap).

The drink, containing 42 grams of protein and 0.5% fat, comes in two flavors - sweet and creamy Banana-Caramel, but not overly sweet and with good creaminess, and also refreshing and slightly sour Peach-Passionfruit - both of which stand well on their own and even better as part of a balanced and indulgent shake. Price: NIS 12.90.
