Once the mash has been fermented, it is distilled through Spirit Works custom-made, 800-liter pot still.

The gin is then macerated with sloe berries until the fruits flavor and color have been delightfully imparted unto the spirit. The resulting liqueur has a bright, berry and citrus nose, which continues on the palate along with additional cinnamon and cardamom. The finish is rich with plums, orange peel and a pleasant acidity.In the UK, foraging for wild berries, steeping them in gin and crafting the liqueur has been a rural family tradition for generations.
