Aval Dor Sloe Gin

Description

Our Cornish Sloe Gin is truly a labour of love, crafted by our wonderful local community.

In early September, the hedgerows started to bulge so we put out a call for local sloe berries. We were taken aback by your response - within one week, you hand-picked and delivered a whopping 170 kilograms to our distillery doors. Thank you.

Here’s what we did next …..

Leaning into tradition, we gently macerated 116 kilograms of your sloe berries into a single batch of our award winning Aval Dor Dry Gin at 55.5%.

Then we leant back and let time do its clever thing.

The result of this attentive crafting is a beautiful symphony of authentic sloe gin flavours.

We’re enjoying piney juniper and citrus notes up front, mingling with subtle hints of exotic spice and warming roots. The plummy richness of bulbous sloe berries arrives next, perfectly rounded out by our homemade English sugar syrup.

Perfect served neat over ice in front of a crackling fire or nipped from your hip flask, during a blustery countryside walk.

Hand-bottled at 25% ABV. Available in 70CL only.
