Appearance: A ruby-red, slightly viscous, liquid that exudes a beautifully deep & rich quality.
Nose: A highly aromatic, rich, & fruity bouquet with a distinctively almond nose.
Taste: Initially a big berry hit followed by a fantastic nuttiness emerging from the sloe stones. It is also smooth, complex & enticing, with port-like richness.
Finish: A long, fruity flavour with a hint of sweetness that slowly smoulders, culminating in deep warmth to the chest. Bottom notes of woodland & floral botanicals coming from the base spirit are also in abundance.
Using Anno's award winning Anno Kent Dry Gin as a superb starting point, the distillery added some of the finest sloes available from the beautiful Kent countryside, to create a wonderful concoction sure to delight your senses.
H&-crafted in the Anno Distillers tradition, the team at Kent's first micro-distillery scour the local countryside to obtain the exquisite local botanicals which give their sloe gin that unique taste of Kent; including samphire from the Romney Marsh, lavender from the National Collection at Downderry nursery, & locally foraged elderflower & rose hips.
Anno infuse the spirit with handpicked Kentish sloes using a secret method to extract all the flavour from the fruit & the stone, which culminates in perhaps the most extraordinary sloe gin you will ever taste.
Anno Sloe Gin is beautifully warming & perfect to be enjoyed neat, perhaps after a long winter's walk or other outdoor activities. It's a very versatile spirit, so can also be enjoyed with soda, lemonade or tonic, or combined perfectly with English sparkling wine or Prosecco for a lovely Sloe Gin Fizz
- ideal for a toast at Christmas or on a special occasion.
