And what makes it even more special is that the Demijohn team shuts up shop in the autumn and treks to the Galloway hedgerows to pick sloes to ensure the producers have enough to cope with demand. Due to the fact that sloes grow wild on the blackthorn bush in only certain places Demijohn scours the land for good, juicy sloes which are then steeped in London Gin for many months with sugar to create what is now officially the world\u2019s best Sloe Gin.<\/p>\n Demijohn\u2019s winning Sloe Gin was described by judges Anita Martin, Mark Baldwin and Diana Morris as: \u201cNot too sweet, not too dry and a perfect drink for the winter.\u201d All proceeds of the event are donated to the MS which supports people with Multiple Sclerosis – www.mssociety.org.uk<\/a>.<\/p>\n Angus Ferguson, owner of Demijohn said on hearing the news: \u201cWith 3 World Championship wins for our Sloe Gin, we are quite literally toasting our success in Sloe Gin! Our recipe is a closely guarded secret but one tip, if making your own follow its name \u2013 don\u2019t be too hasty and infuse the sloes for at least 10 to 12 months to ensure a deep, rich flavour.<\/p>\n \u201cCredit must go to our hard working Sloe Gin producing team \u2013 the Hingston family from Worcestershire. While we can help with picking and quality control, without their Hingston talent no amount of our fabulous Sloe Gin would be made. I only hope there will be enough left this year for others to try it also at Christmas.\u201d<\/p>\n Demijohn Sloe Gin is priced at \u00a35.40\/100ml and is available from www.demijohn.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n or at our shops in Glasgow, Edinburgh, York and Oxford.<\/p>\n
