Padstow Gin® Sloe 70cl

PADSTOW SLOE GIN 2024 - Batch No. 007

Our Autumn/Winter '24 Sloe Gin is now here and perfectly timed for Christmas. Batch #007 was released on 4th December 2024, with a limited run of only 24 x 70cl bottles and 24 x 20cl bottles.

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. Batch #005/6/7 from the 2024 harvest are our best Sloe Gin yet - hard to beat Batch #004 from 2023, but a few little tweaks here and there have worked wonders.”

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!
