Slingsby Rhubarb Gin 70cl, craft spirit, local gin, Yorkshire rhubarb. Delicious quality liqueur from the Spirit of Harrogate. Top quality gin, made with Harrogate spring water, steeped with hand-grown Yorkshire rhubarb. Originally produced as a limited edition, it is now a proud member of the Slingsby range. This is one of the few Rhubarb gins we have tasted that manages to balance the initial sweetness of subtle raspberry flavours with the trademark tartness of rhubarb and subtle bitterness from the pink grapefruit from the base spirit. Perfectly balanced, this is ideal for sipping on its own or with ginger ale.
Slingsby Gin takes its name from William Slingsby who first discovered the unique properties of Harrogate's spring water in the 1500s. In 2015, founders Marcus Black and Mike Carthy sought to create a boutique gin (before the boom really took off) that captured the essence and spirit of the Harrogate water's restorative property, using hand-grown local botanicals and herbs, as well as Jasmine tea.
