Sloanes Original Dry Gin (700ml)

In the 2011 San Francisco World Spirit Competition Sloane’s premium Dry Gin was awarded the highest accolade of World’s Best Gin, Best White Spirit in addition to a Double Gold Medal.
The gin is named after the 18th century botanist, Sir Hans Sloane, who is said to have discovered many of the plants used to flavour gins today.
With only the ‘heart’ of the distillate being used to extract the purest flavours, Juniper, Angelica, Cassia bark, Cardamon Pods, Coriander Seeds, Iris Root, Lemon, Orange, Liquorice Root and Vanilla Pod are all individually distilled. They're then carefully blended together one at a time. Distilling each of the botanicals is a little unusual, although not unique with Leopold’s Gin and Sacred Gin being a few others who do the same.

Sloanes is distilled in Holland by Toorank Distilleries, one of the fastest growing Dutch distilleries currently operating. The gin was also awarded Silver Medal ‘Best in Class’ in the prestigious International Wine and Spirit Competition 2010 (ISWC).

Other reviews... Clear. Bright aromas of citrus pastries, juniper blossoms, and sweet spices with a soft, dry-yet-fruity light-to-medium body and a lingering, peppery citrus powder, toasted grain, and wet stone finish. An elegant, well crafted gin for all applications. 40% Alc./Vol.
