I'm never quite sure about the quality of sloe gin. Always best to take a sample from the top, middle and bottom of the bottle. Right side, left side and from the middle. Repeat until you're entirely certainmuddywhitechicken wrote: »

After a couple of glasses of sloe gin each (2013 vintage) we concluded that:
a) it was very good!
b) 2014 was the year that, aged 43, we started to get saggy necks
