Tasting Notes

Nose

Fresh gooseberry tartness — bright citrus with garden herb aromatics

Palate

Sharp tangy gooseberry with the 24-botanical gin base — tart English fruit character, grapefruit citrus adding brightness, refreshingly different

Finish

Tart and refreshing — the gooseberry's natural sharpness making this ideal for summer G&Ts

First Impressions

Slingsby Gooseberry infuses sharp Yorkshire gooseberries into their 24-botanical London Dry base with Harrogate spring water. Tart, bright and refreshingly different from sweeter fruit gins.

Tasting

The nose is fresh gooseberry tartness. On the palate, sharp tangy gooseberry with grapefruit and the gin base. Tart and refreshing on the finish.

The Bottom Line

Slingsby Gooseberry earns a 7 for sharp English fruit gin that embraces tartness. The gooseberry cuts through sweetness in a way that other fruits cannot.
