Tasting Notes

Nose

Intensely fruity — black cherry, sloe berries, and plums, marzipan leading into cherry, rich and inviting

Palate

Delicious stewed red fruits — plums and almonds, pine from the juniper, fresh citrus and hints of mint, the riverside mint adding a lovely menthol note to the rich red fruit and cherry flavours

Finish

Cherry and almond — mint freshness cutting through the fruit sweetness, juniper and botanicals keeping everything in check, balanced and moreish

Expert Review

7/10

Neil Beckett hand-picks sloe berries from Box Hill in Surrey — the same picturesque Surrey Hills where he forages English juniper. Steeped in his six-botanical London Dry, the riverside mint adding a menthol note that transforms the traditional sloe gin. BBC Good Food named it one of the best.
