Female Original
What to drink. Where to drink it.
An independent editorial space exploring wine, food, bars, restaurants and food-focused travel.
About Female Original
Female Original is an independent food and drink publication with wine at its heart.
It’s about what to drink, where to drink it, and what’s actually worth your time and money — from bottles worth picking up and wine bars worth visiting to restaurants, food, drinks and food-focused travel.
Wine is always at the centre of it all: with food, at restaurants and bars, while travelling, or simply as something good to open at home.
The approach is straightforward: good recommendations, tried and tested by Faye, honest opinions and wine made a little less complicated.
About the Editor
Female Original is written and curated by Faye, a London-based writer with a WSET Level 2 certification and a particular love of Spanish wine, interesting bottles, and finding a good place to drink them.
Faye tastes and reviews all wines featured on Female Original herself, looking beyond tasting notes to consider what a wine is actually like to drink, what to eat with it, whether it’s worth the price and who might enjoy it.
Alongside wine, she writes about bars, restaurants, food and food-focused travel — particularly the places and experiences that make eating and drinking worth going out for.
The aim is simple: to make it easier to know what to drink, where to go, and what’s worth trying next.
