Gin Sharish is a smooth gin with a unique aroma. Very citric especially from the orange zest & a sweet flavour from the Bravo Esmolfe Apple & from the vanilla. The juniper its also easy to identify considering the softer notes of cloves & coriander seeds. At the final taste a little spike coming from the Lemon verbena. Distilled in a traditional Portuguese copper still it uses a combination of 9 botanicals carefully selected: Juniper, Cinnamon, Coriander seeds, Clove, Vanilla, Orange Peel, Lemon Peel, Bravo Esmolfe Apple PDO (Protected designation of origin) & Lemon verbena. With the particularity that the last four botanicals are used fresh. Due to the different characteristics & points of evaporation, the botanicals slowly distillate separately, allowing a greater quality in the final distillation. During the process, all the impurities are removed so the result is as limpid as possible. The addition of tonic water turns the gin immediately pink as it changes its natural PH! ...

Shaw Smith make a medium bodied cool-climate Shiraz, in which balance is more important than power.

There is also intensity & weight to the palate, held in check by a seam of crisp acid that keeps it fresh & tight. 100% Chardonnay. ...

Limited stock. Jim Murray describes Sheep Dip in his 2006 Whisky Bible as Young & sprightly like a new-born lamb, this enjoys a fresh, mouthwatering grassy style with a touch of spice. Maligned by some but to me a clever accomplished vatting of alluring complexity. Much mythology has grown up around whisky but in reality a great whisky does not have to be the product of one distillery nor should its age be a measure of quality. Richard Paterson, Scotland's renowned & only third generation master blender created the Sheep Dip vatting by marrying together several single malt whiskies. The whiskies are aged between eight & twelve years in quality first fill wood, each adding unique characteristics to produce an exceptional product. Sheep Dip despite its iconoclastic name is a genuinely great whisky. The name came about because British farmers have long referred to whisky as Sheep Dip. There was a time when farmers distilled their own 'home-made' whisky & in order to avoid paying taxes to the revenue man hid the whisky in barrels marked Sheep Dip. Farmers' merchants continued this tradition by entering cases of whisky as Sheep dip on farmers' bills & so 'pulling the wool' over the farmers wives eyes.
