Sipsmith Sloe Gin
From: Sipsmith
Truly handmade, complex & bursting with flavour. First the team at Sipsmith distil their award-winning London Dry Gin on our copper stills. Then they leave it to rest on wild sloe berries, picked in the autumn. The result is a truly handmade sloe gin that is subtle, complex and bursting with flavour.
Each autumn their sloe berries are picked, frozen and then left to rest with our London Dry Gin. Year-on-year the harvests vary due to the ever changing, unpredictable English weather. Much like a good wine, every vintage that they produce has its own wonderfully unique character.

“I believe good gin, like good wine, begins with fingers in the soil and ends with the guest experience,” explains Sipsmith Co-Founder and Master Distiller Jared Brown. Despite the phenomenal success of the brand, which famously challenged an antiquated British law preventing gin being made in small batches and won, the bedrock of their story is the belief that flavours Read more
