It contains three 5cl miniatures of their much-loved gins. First up is the Schwarzwald Sloe Gin created by macerating Black Forest sloes for three months in their multi-award-winning gin. We love to sip this neat alongside a cheeseboard. Next up is the classic Schwarzwald Dry Gin that shot them into upper echelons of gin making. Crafted with 47 handpicked botanicals including tangy lingonberries it’s a peppery delight loved by connoisseurs and bartenders throughout the world. And finally there’s the Barrel Cut which has been matured for six months in lightly-toasted 100-litre mulberry wood casks handmade by a cooperage in Pfalz. This adds amazing notes of raisin Medjool dates agave-roasted figs freeze-dried cherries milk chocolate caramels polished walnut antiques and worn leather to the nose and a palate that’s something akin to being pitched headfirst into a spice shop. Sip it as you might a fine Scotch or give a classic gin cocktail a woody twist. There really is not better way to get to know this legendary gin producer making it an ultimate gift or stocking filler.
