Padstow Gin® Sloe 70cl

PADSTOW SLOE GIN 2025/6 - Batch #013

March 2026 update: we have just bottled our last batch of Sloe Gin for the season - at least until the autumn. There were just 28 x 70cl of the final run and a few miniatures which will soon be available in our new distillery.

David notes: “The late summer was warm in Padstow, so we picked our sloes early this year - all within a stone's throw of the sea along the Camel Estuary, before being steeped in an overproof version of our St George's Well recipe Padstow Gin. The high alcohol content during the steeping process works well, extracting the character of the sloes quickly and giving a richly fruity gin with notes of nutty almond, bright tartness and deep plum and cherry flavours.

At 40% vol, our Sloe Gin is excellent with tonic water - the simpler, the better - throwing in a few frozen blueberries for extra colour. Or try a little mixology with our Sloe Martini recipe:-

• 50ml Sloe Gin
• 50ml Cranberry Juice
• Optional 1/4 fresh egg white or Stillabunt magic drops
• A rose petal to decorate
• Shake hard over ice and double strain into a chilled martini glass. What could be simpler, or more sublime!
