Sipsmith Sloe Gin

Each autumn our sloe berries (a hedgerow fruit in the plum family) are picked and 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 we produce has its own wonderfully unique character. 

Our wild Sloe berries are frozen to break the skins and then rested on our London Dry Gin for three to four months, giving our Sloe Gin a jammy, marzipan flavour.

The Nose
Gorgeous redcurrant and ripe winter fruits with stone-fruit almond.

The Palate
Cassis comes through with soft cherry hints and a rounded fruitiness.

The Finish
Velvety mouthfeel and balanced sweetness.

“The key to the perfect sloe gin is restraint with sugar and the Sipsmith boys have balanced this beauty to perfection. The berry flavours are splendidly seasonal here. The ideal hip flask booster on a wintry stroll.”
