Elephant Sloe Gin 50cl
Elephant Gin have combined their award-winning Elephant London Dry Gin with the classic flavour of fresh sloe berries. Macerate in the gin for several months, these wild berries add a richly rounded, lightly sweet and exquisitely fruity bouquet as well as a typical warm red colour to the spirit. Compared to other sloe gins , Elephant Sloe Gin has a lower sugar content paired with higher alcohol volume of 35%. This makes it perfectly suited to mixing in cocktails as well as enjoying it neat. Every bottle sold allows the producers to donate 15% of profits to conservation for the Africa Elephant.
Hendricks Gin
Hendrick’s Gin is introduced as a wonderfully peculiar, distinctly aromatic and beautifully crafted spirit from Ayrshire, Scotland—deliberately set apart from the “humdrum gins” of the world. Produced in minuscule 450‑litre batches, it is made using an extraordinary dual‑still method: the Carter‑Head still, which yields a light, smooth and delicately fragrant spirit, and the Bennett still, which produces a deeper, richer, more robust distillate. The marriage of these two spirits forms the foundation of Hendrick’s unmistakably balanced character. The aroma opens with an unusually intense burst of crisp botanicals—juniper, coriander, citrus zest—layered with a deep, surprising floral lift of violets and rose. This signature perfume is elevated by Hendrick’s famous “coup de grâce”: the infusion of Bulgarian Rosa Damascena petals and Dutch cucumber, which together create a refreshing, cool and delightfully floral bouquet. On the palate, it offers a curiously smooth, impeccably clean and dry texture with a superb balance of botanicals. The bright citrus and juniper notes shine through, supported by subtle spice and a soft, lingering finish of cooling cucumber and rose. The complexity of the nose translates seamlessly into flavour, making each sip both refined and intriguingly unusual. Presented in its iconic Victorian apothecary‑style bottle, Hendrick’s stands as a distinctive and imaginative addition to any drinks collection. Anyone who enjoys floral, refreshing and elegantly unconventional gins will find Hendrick’s a memorable and wonderfully eccentric choice.
