Elephant Sloe Gin 50 cl 35%

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.

Palate
