Wonderfully rich and deep in flavour. The gin and fruit come together with a velvety depth and warmth that makes you feel at one with the world! Unique Selling Point: Many commercially available sloe gins will be made by macerating sloe berries with bottle-strength gin and sugar. Instead, Tom & Sion use the gin straight from the still, at 90%, which means that the flavour and juice from the fruit is extracted very quickly. After just one month of maceration, they add sugar and spring water to dilute the gin to 30% ABV. Handmade in Northamptonshire using local sloes which are steeped in still strength gin. Production Method: Tom & Sion distil and bottle everything at their distillery in Harrington. The water is brought the 300m from the spring in a small bowser. The botanicals, alcohol and water are mixed into Curiosity and she takes seven hours to distil the gin, which then emerges at 90% abv.
