Sipsmith Sloe Gin is a unique and handcrafted spirit that combines the traditional art of gin distillation with the infusion of wild sloe berries. This process creates a gin that is unlike any other, with a subtle complexity and a burst of flavor that is truly exceptional.
To begin the creation of Sipsmith Sloe Gin, the distillers start by using their award-winning London Dry Gin as a base. This gin is meticulously crafted using traditional methods and copper stills, resulting in a high-quality spirit that forms the foundation for the sloe gin.
Next, the distillers carefully select wild sloe berries that have been picked in the autumn. These berries are known for their rich and deep flavor, which adds a distinctive character to the gin. The sloe berries are then left to rest on the gin, allowing their essence to infuse into the spirit over time.
The result of this meticulous process is a sloe gin that is truly handmade and of the highest quality. The flavors of the sloe berries meld with the botanicals of the London Dry Gin, creating a harmonious balance of sweet and tart, fruity and herbal.
Sipsmith Sloe Gin is a versatile spirit that can be enjoyed on its own or used as a base for cocktails. Its complex flavors make it a wonderful addition to classic gin cocktails such as the Sloe Gin Fizz or the Sloe Gin Negroni.
