Warner's Sloe Gin: A Deep Dive into a British Hedgerow Delight
Warner's Sloe Gin offers a taste of the British countryside in a bottle. This award-winning liqueur is crafted with handpicked sloe berries, steeped in Warner's Harrington Dry Gin, resulting in a complex and flavourful spirit.
Aromatic Delights: A Symphony of Fruit and Spice
The first sip of Warner's Sloe Gin is an aromatic journey. On the nose, a rich bouquet of sloe berries takes centre stage, reminiscent of ripe plums and cherries. Hints of blood orange add a touch of sweetness, balanced by a subtle sour note that piques the senses.
A Luxuriously Textured Palate: A Dance of Sweetness and Tartness
The palate is greeted with a wonderfully thick and luxurious texture. The initial burst of flavour delivers a wave of concentrated blackberry jam, followed by a gentle dusting of nutmeg. As the spirit lingers, a warming sensation of cinnamon emerges, harmonising with the tartness of the sloes. A touch of sweet orange weaves its way through, creating a truly decadent experience.
A Lingering Finish: A Touch of Juniper and Dark Chocolate
The finish of Warner's Sloe Gin is long and satisfying. The juniper notes, characteristic of Warner's gins, make a subtle appearance, adding a touch of complexity. Hints of dark chocolate linger on the palate, leaving a delightful and sophisticated aftertaste.
