About this deal

Plymouth Sloe Gin is an award-winning traditional fruit gin from Plymouth. It is batch distilled in the original Victorian copper pot still in England's Oldest Operating Gin Distillery in the South West of England. Plymouth Sloe Gin uses hand foraged sloe berries to produce a gin that strikes a perfect balance between the sweet and the bitter. A truly traditional English liqueur is made to a recipe Plymouth Gin first used in 1883. Its intensity and richness is the result of using high strength Plymouth Gin™ which extracts the maximum flavour from the sloe berries. Knoll, Aaron.

In contrast, Plymouth Gin was viewed more favourably. The product was standardised and reliable, while its distillation occurred far from the slums of London where substandard gin had most often been both made and imbibed.

[18] [19] While use of gin in general declined in England from the 1750s, the Plymouth-style was somewhat insulated from the falling consumption and low regard which distilled grain spirits had acquired in the aftermath of the Gin Craze.
