Delicious brew, locally made. The gentle gin-making giant behind it is a fine chap too, with a fantastic array of tweed jackets. You'll find him in the Shoreham area farmers markets, and he'll boggle... See more
Very interesting taste with hints of wild flowers and herbs. Good with Fevertree Mediterranean tonic and Schweppes Russchian. I found I liked it even without ice. Excellent service, and arrived quick... See more

Slake gin is absolutely delicious
Slake gin is absolutely delicious. My partner and I liked it so much we bought some for my son too.It is his absolute favourite. Have purchased the Hedgerow gin but we have not tried it yet!
Bought at the farmers market in Shoreham and received excellent friendly and knowledgeable service.
Love the fact it is locally made and would highly recommend it..

Dissapointed with delivery
Dissapointed with delivery, another delivery driver actually made me aware that my bottle was sitting on the bonnet of my car in view of everybody walking by I didnt know it had been delivered at all.

Hi Bernard, sorry to hear this, I agree that's really disappointing. I decided to use Royal Mail for our web deliveries, unfortunately more out of necessity than choice due to relatively low volumes, but I continue to look for better options that remain reasonably priced for customers. I hope we can provide a better service in the future and thank you for letting me know as without feedback like this I would be none the wiser! Cheers, Tom
Lovely tasting gin with a slight hint of aniseed
Lovely tasting gin with a slight hint of aniseed. Not the cheapest, but worth the money for a lovingly crafted, small batch product.

Thanks Dean!
Superb
I've had the hedgerow and the dry and both are fantastic! The ingredients give an amazing flavour that you don't get with other well known brands. You won't be disappointed, you'll love it !

Since I discovered Slake spirits I’ve been a huge fan. I like the concept, I like the owner but more over, the gin is excellent.

Very pleased I can across this company on the internet. The hedgerow gin is amazing, a new favourite. I will definitely be ordering again and recommending you to my fellow spirit drinkers. Even better that you're local!

I love Slake
I love Slake - and their recent local delivery service was wonderful! Brilliant local company producing gin using locally grown/ foraged botanicals. Excellent in a G&T or a Negroni.
