  Elephant Sloe Gin 50 cl 35%

  Item no.: 2222786539-6050

  Behind every bottle of Elephant Gin, 15% of the profit goes to African wildlife conservation projects, and in this edition the distillery lets macerated sloe berries pull dark forest-fruit flavour into the house's London Dry Gin.

  Expert's description

  Elephant Sloe Gin is a German sloe gin made from Elephant London Dry Gin, bottled at 35%.

  The sloe gin is made by adding macerated sloe berries to Elephant London Dry Gin, which already builds on 14 different botanicals.

  Among the 14 botanicals are four African ingredients: buchu, baobab, lion's tail and devil's claw, alongside more classic ones such as juniper, elderberry, mountain pine needles, orange peel, cassia bark and lavender.

  The sloe berries give a tart, forest-fruit-like depth that is markedly drier than many other sloe gins on the market.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  The nose offers red berry and sloe berry fruit with cracked black pepper and a faint hint of grilled almond.

  Palate

  The palate is brawny with cracked black pepper spice and tart sloe berry fruit with faint lavender.

  Finish

  The finish is relatively dry compared to many other sloe gins.

  Elephant Strength Gin 50 cl 57%

  Item no.: 2222786539-6051

  This powerful edition of Elephant Gin uses double the amount of the house's 14 botanicals, giving it a far more intense character than the classic London Dry edition.

  Expert's description

  Elephant Strength Gin is a German Navy Strength Gin, unaged and bottled at 57%.

  The gin is built on the same 14 botanicals as Elephant London Dry Gin, including the African ingredients buchu, baobab, devil's claw and lion's tail, but uses double the quantity of each.

  The extra botanicals combined with the high strength give a far more concentrated, powerful flavour experience than the standard edition.

  Despite its strength, the gin is often described as surprisingly smooth, with a long finish dominated by juniper and citrus.

  Tasting notes

  Nose

  The nose is powerful and fresh, dominated by juniper, layered with vibrant citrus, particularly sweet orange peel, an herbaceous hint of mountain pine, and the characteristic blackcurrant-like fragrance of buchu.

  Palate

  The palate is smooth with a strong juniper presence complemented by lemon peel, heather and mint, followed by orange, bitterness and mild notes of ginger and blackcurrant.

  Finish

  The finish is long and surprisingly smooth, with lingering warmth and a pronounced imprint of juniper and citrus.
