Tasting Notes

Nose

Full-bodied with deep lusciously rich sticky toffee pudding notes

Palate

Smooth dry gin packed with sticky toffee pudding sweetness from the first sip — classic earthy spicy juniper-forward gin notes alongside the date-caramel richness

Finish

Surprisingly long and warming — toffee sweetness persisting

First Impressions

Solway Sticky Toffee Gin takes inspiration from one of Britain's most beloved desserts and infuses dates and caramel into their classic London Dry base. It is unashamedly dessert-inspired and designed for after-dinner drinking.

Tasting

The nose is deep and lusciously rich with sticky toffee pudding notes. On the palate, smooth gin packed with mouthwatering sticky toffee sweetness, alongside classic earthy, spicy, juniper-forward gin character. The finish is surprisingly long and warming. An excellent base for Espresso Martini or sparkling apple juice punch.

The Bottom Line

Solway Sticky Toffee earns a 6.5 for successfully translating Britain's favourite dessert into gin form. The dates and caramel provide authentic sticky toffee character, and the London Dry base prevents it becoming a simple liqueur. At around £34, a Scottish dessert gin for those who like their gin sweet.
