About this deal

The data collected including the number visitors, the source where they have come from, and the pages viisted in an anonymous form. This sloe gin has a nice drying texture and spice, but could do with a little less kick from the alcohol. An enjoyable gin, testers liked the prominent fruity, berry flavours, describing this sloe gin as “warming and syrupy. Hearst UK is the trading name of the National Magazine Company Ltd, 30 Panton Street, Leicester Square, London, SW1Y 4AJ.

Complex and sweet, the texture of this gin is smooth and warming, with the juniper-led gin flavours, and the sloe and blackberry flavours marrying well. Gordon’s Sloe gin, a British classic, was first released in 1906 and builds on centuries of tradition. Strain into a cool rocks glass filled with crushed ice and garnish with fresh blackberries and raspberries (frozen berries work well too). The heat of the alcohol was a bit too prominent for some, however, but overall it was found to have an enjoyable, smooth texture.Tasting them completely blind, each sample was tested neat, and then again, diluted with a small amount of water.

Add 25ml of Gordon’s gin, 25ml of Gordon’s Sloe gin, 25ml of lemon juice and 15ml of sugar syrup, then give it a good shake. Sloe gin is made from ripe sloes, which are traditionally picked after the first frost of winter (late October to early November in the northern hemisphere). Made with gin and sloe drupes, a small fruit that has a sharp, sour taste, you can drink sloe gin neat, as a hot toddy, with ice and ginger ale, or even in a shot of Prosecco. An alternative folk tale says that one should not prick the sloes with a metal fork unless it is made of silver.

This gin reminded some of our testers of cherry bakewell, with many enjoying its fresh forest fruit qualities.Flavours of citrus peel, burnt sugar, liquorice and dark berries all shone through, too, and the finish on this gin is long, while the aftertaste is warm and smooth. The juniper flavours could be stronger, but testers were happy with the pleasurable warmth and texture.

Once the sloes and sugar have been added to the gin, the mix is left to infuse for three months, traditionally turned by hand daily for two weeks, then weekly until the three month period is up and the fruit has turned the gin a beautiful ruby colour. Rich berry red in colour and sweet to taste, sloe gin is the perfect winter warming tipple when the weather starts to turn a little nippier. Our testers enjoyed the prominent berry flavours, describing it as having a subtle yet complex profile.
