Padstow Gin® Sloe 50cl

PADSTOW SLOE GIN 2023 - Batch No. 004

Padstow Sloe Gin is now here, and in good time for Christmas. Batch #004 was released on 8th November 2023, a limited run of only 340 x 50cl bottles.

David notes: “The late summer was warm in Padstow, so our sloes were picked 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 works well, extracting the sloe character quickly and giving a richly fruity gin with notes of nutty almond, bright tartness and deep plum and cherry flavours. Batch 4 is our best Sloe Gin yet - hard to beat the Batch 3 from 2022, but our 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

Rose petal to decorate

Shake hard over ice and double strain into a chilled martini glass. What could be simpler, or more sublime!
