Which dad sounds like your dad? 👇

We didn't say it... they did. 👀

When the labels come off and the votes are counted, Cirrus Vodka still comes out on top. 🍸

New product alert! Codex Crackers from Codex_VA, a farm-to-table restaurant in Norfolk, just hit our shelves. They're handmade, perfectly crisp, and come in three bold flavors: sea salt, everything, and za'atar. These crackers are a fan favorite at the restaurant, and Yellow Umbrella is one of the few retailers in Virginia where you can get them! 🙌

We recommend pairing them with Yellow Umbrella's house-made spreads:
🐟 Smoked Salmon Belly Dip
🐟 Smoked Trout Dip
🧀 Pimento Cheese
🥗 Chicken Salad

Stop by any of our markets today and grab a box. Perhaps one of each?
