Deriving it's distinct flavour from the fruit of the Blackthorn Tree, the sloe berry; this classic gin flavouring has roots in ancient Britain, where it is said to be guarded by the Lunantisidhe, meaning Moon Fairies.
Sloe berries were also found being held by Ötzi, the Iceman; a frozen mummy discovered in the Swiss Alps, dating all the way back to 3230 BC. In modern times, the sloe berry has been used as a cure for a multitude of ailments such as coughs, colds, and the worst of all... sobriety!
Sloe gin is sweet, full of flavour, and always has an enticing colouration!

Plymouth Sloe Gin is a quintessentially English drink – the origins of which have been lost in time. Although sloe berries grow all over Europe and many countries have their own version, it is the English style that is the most famous.
Sipsmith was established in 2007 by childhood friends Fairfax Hall and Sam Galsworthy. United in their passion for martinis and gin, they established a small London distillery, even getting a law changed in 2008 to allow such small-scale distillation.
Their vision was to create a London Dry that followed English tradition, a vision which they have since accomplished. The brand's name finds its origins in the smithery that the founders claim you can taste in every sip.
Sipsmith Sloe Gin is no exception to this rule - the quality craftsmanship of the brand really shines through here. Autumn sloe berries are steeped in their classic London Dry recipe to build a complex and fruity flavour palate. Aromas of redcurrant, almond and winter fruits are followed by a palate of cherry and cassis.
The finish is velvety and perfectly balanced, making this gin a great one to enjoy neat or mixed into a festive cocktail. Treat yourself to some great quality at Spirit Store today.
