Where can I get Tapered Corks?

Postby stepSeven » Feb 24th, '07, 02:28



I am after a couple of tapered (wine bottle) corks (for the challenge on Jim Tyler's Pockets Full Of Miracles - can't say too much :wink: ).

Any idea where I can get some from - ideally UK high street if possible.

Coming by wine/champagne bottle corks is easy but they're either straight sided or mushroom shaped - the corks have to have a reasonable taper on them for the gag to work.

Thanks.

Dave gets some of his beer making kit from Wilkinsons, might be worth a try
