Corks

Where does everyone get their corks from?

I'm after for some good corks, as I've had some from HBSs in the past which haven't been great...

I get mine from that HBS in Gornal which we've spoken about before, excellent quality and 75p a dozen.

Wilko's have re-useable ones, not expensive. I haven't used mine yet so can't really comment.

My current batch of corks I'm not knocked out by though they're OK, so next time it'll be whoever has Larsen at a good price.

Really? I ordered some filters online from them and put some corks on the order to see what they were like and they were really uneven, with chunks missing! Should I email them to mention it? Hardly seems worth it for a few pence tbh...

That seems very strange, quality has always been consistently high and I've never had any with chunks missing. However, I haven't bought any for a few months as I tend to bulk buy and still have 2-3 bags in stock, so I suppose it's possible he's changed suppliers or got a different batch in - I will check next time I visit.
