The making of fruit gins has a long tradition in the areas surrounding our West Country home, with sloe gin especially popular. In fact it's been made for so long that it has a history almost as long as our own. Originally made by soaking the fruit of the blackthorn bush, sloe berries, in gin and adding sugar, our version is based on a classic 1883 recipe and is an essential part of numerous classic cocktails, including the Sloe Gin Fizz.
