Crafted with up to half a pound of sloes in every bottle (that’s a lot of sloes, FYI), this cold-compounded sloe gin is a blend of copper pot still gin and bundles of juniper berries, cassia, coriander, orange peel and more. It's big, full-bodied and bursting with flavour. The sloes are sourced from a UK fruit supplier, and paired with fresh sloe juice they give this gin a delicious flavour, with a note of bitterness to perfectly balance the sweet, which comes from the almond extract we use.

For their Merlet VSOP Cognac, Gilles and his sons selected and blended eaux-de-vie from different regions of the cognac appellation, to ensure consistent quality. The eaux-de-vie were aged for at least four years. Most of the Cognacs selected for this blend are from Fins Bois ‘crus’, famed for their fruitiness and their capacity to mature fast when barrel-aged.
