Flavours of citrus peel, burnt sugar, liquorice and dark berries all shone through, too, and the finish on this gin is long, while the aftertaste is warm and smooth. Sloe Gin is a Gin-based Liqueur which is made by infusing sloe berries, from the blackthorn bush, in Gin.Made with gin and sloe drupes, a small fruit that has a sharp, sour taste, you can drink sloe gin neat, as a hot toddy, with ice and ginger ale, or even in a shot of Prosecco. The sloes infuse the Gin for three to four months before bottling, and the result is a not-too-sweet, well balanced Liqueur.

Sloes are native to Europe and have long been used by the British to create ‘shooting Gins’ (as they used to be known). No longer considered only something your granny liked, the big Gin producers have put lots of care and attention into creating Sloe Gins that are deliciously sweet, tart and balanced. Hearst UK is the trading name of the National Magazine Company Ltd, 30 Panton Street, Leicester Square, London, SW1Y 4AJ. Just before bottling, they add an extra shot of juniper, resulting in a Sloe Gin that’s most definitely Gin-flavoured.There’s no tartness, but still a hint of the sweet, making it perfect for Gin drinkers who don’t like Liqueurs. Make like the British aristocracy and sip it neat, or try it chilled over ice to cut through some of the syrupyness.
