Tasting Notes

Nose

Sweet rhubarb with juniper and zesty grapefruit — inviting and Yorkshire-fresh

Palate

Initial Yorkshire rhubarb and raspberry sweetness — bitter grapefruit tang, tart rhubarb finish leaving unforgettable flavour, subtle rather than cloying

Finish

Tart rhubarb rounding off — the pink grapefruit base absolutely delightful with the fruit

First Impressions

Slingsby Yorkshire Rhubarb uses rhubarb from the famous Rhubarb Triangle in West Yorkshire, infused into their 24-botanical London Dry base with Harrogate aquifer water. Considered one of the best rhubarb gins available.

Tasting

The nose shows sweet rhubarb with juniper and grapefruit. On the palate, Yorkshire rhubarb and raspberry sweetness with bitter grapefruit tang. The finish is tart rhubarb.

The Bottom Line

Slingsby Rhubarb earns a 7 for Yorkshire rhubarb gin done properly. The Rhubarb Triangle provenance and grapefruit base create a balanced fruit gin. Best with ginger ale, raspberries and mint.
