    If you mean the potato epicure then this is its description, perhaps it can be bought from a Tom Davington.

Soory buts thats the best I can offer;

EPICURE SEED POTATO     First Early     

Traditional variety.
Moderate yield of round potatoes with white flesh with an excellent, distinctive flavour which are good boiled, mashed or in salads.
Potatoes do not discolour or lose their shape after cooking.
Does well in cold exposed positions.
Slug resistant.
