Previous reviews:

20/February/2016
Appearance: (sample bottle vintage: 2015, bottle No. 68) Hazy, crimson red. (Some sediment in bottom of bottle.)
Aroma: Red berry and sloe berry fruit with cracked black pepper and faint grilled almond.
Taste: Brawny cracked black pepper spice and tart sloe berry fruit with faint lavender. Relatively dry compared to some other sloe gins.
Aftertaste: Raspberry, sloe berries, cracked black pepper and faint lavender.
Overall: Some will be attracted by this sloe gin’s unfiltered hazy appearance while others will find it off-putting. The palate is drier, more tart, than many other sloe gins – perhaps a tad to dry and peppery for some. We liked the pronounced sloe berry fruit flavours and subtle lavender notes.
