Lauren Anderson-Smedley
Lauren started her wine journey as so many people have: on a warm sunny day, in the garden, and a couple of bottles with friends and family. As the sun went down there was a sudden realisation that the wine in her glass didn't just smell of wine, but of black pepper...
And so began Lauren's adventures into the world of drinks. She has since studied with the Wine and Spirit Education Trust to achieve Levels 1, 2 and 3 in Wine and completed the set by achieving her Diploma in 2024. She also has a WSET Level 2 in Spirits and is a qualified WSET Wine Educator.
She has been designing and hosting drinks events for the past 5 years. You may have seen her pop up on your screens for John Lewis' Give A Little Love program where she whipped up drinks for Konnie Huq and Jason Manford; the Virtual Waitrose Drinks Festival hosting wine, beer and spirit sessions solo and also alongside the Waitrose Buying Team and Brand Ambassadors from the global spirits industry; or joining many drinks brands co-hosting a number of online cocktail making sessions.
