Whitley Neill Sloe Gin (70cl, 28%)
Wonderfully rich sloe gin from the Whitley Neill range, just the ticket for enjoying as a winter warmer – but also marvellous in refreshing cocktails during the summer. Frankly, the deliciousness of sloe berries is a year-round thing, and we won’t hear anything to the contrary.
