The UK Food & Travel Magazine for Curious Explorers

You’ve got good taste

An appetite for discovery. Curiosity, not algorithms.

Travel is in flux. Tastes are changing – less spectacle, more substance.

Tastebound is part of that shift: a print magazine for travellers seeking out the places that welcome you in – and invite you to stay. Second cities, regional cuisines rooted in place, not performance, and the people shaping what comes next – from rising chefs to destinations before they peak.

We cut through the noise – spotlighting the openings worth knowing, the kitchens rewriting regional narratives, and the destinations redefining what it means to travel well.

No content churn. Just considered, print-first storytelling for people who care where they go – and what they eat when they get there.

Carve out an hour. Make a coffee. Put your phone down. A printed copy of TasteBound is an invitation to slow down and travel in earnest — pages to turn, corners to fold, journeys to plan properly.

The Pantry

Before TasteBound magazine was Rooted Spices – a range of single-origin spice tins and blends enjoyed in thousands of home kitchens. Rooted Spices inspired a cookbook (The Modern Spice Rack) and sharpened our appetite for tracking down the very best ingredients, producers and stories from around the world. The Pantry is the next chapter – a carefully sourced collection we’ll continue to grow through our travels, discoveries and the people we meet along the way.
