Rammstein Sloe Gin 1st Edition

This is a limited first edition built with the German band Rammstein, distilled at the Onder de Boompjes distillery in the Netherlands for 1423 ApS. It starts as a proper gin, juniper, coriander, angelica root, lemongrass and cardamom, then takes the traditional sloe route: the distillate is macerated on sloe berries for six to eight weeks, drawing out the dark, brooding forest-fruit character that gives it both colour and depth.

The nose is intense with sloe, plum and a hint of spice, lemongrass and coriander brightening the edges. The palate is full-bodied and fruity, rich sloe over a gentle sweetness with herbal cardamom warmth and a flick of citrus, closing soft and long. Pour it neat over ice, or build a Sloe Gin Fizz with a twist of lemon.
