Sloane’s Heritage

In his quest for the perfect combination of botanicals to make his perfect gin, Sloane’s Master Distiller was struck by the scale and completeness of Sir Hans Sloane’s (1660-1753) personal botanical collection. This collection was amassed during his lifetime and formed the foundation of the British and Natural History Museum collections.

Sir Hans Sloane (1660-1753) – Royal Physician, botanist, collector and landlord of the Physic Garden Chelsea

Undoubtedly of significant influence and inspiration to the early English gin distillers of the mid-18th century, Sir Hans Sloane’s botanical collection introduced to the UK the exotic botanicals which have formed the basis for flavoring gins ever since.

Our master distiller & blender thought it only fitting to call his gin – Sloane’s Gin – in Honour of Sir Hans Sloane for his significant contribution to botany and, unwittingly Gin.

Unique Distilling Process

The main difference between Sloane’s Gin and other gins is that it’s hand crafted in small batches using a unique process that involves using fresh citrus fruits and individually distilling the botanicals.

Our Master Distiller meticulously selects the exact combination of botanicals listed to produce a perfect balance of flavours:

– Sweet Oranges and whole Lemons from Spain –

– Juniper Berries and Iris Root from Italy –

– Coriander from Morocco –

– Angelica Root, Cardamom Pods, Liquorice Root from India –

– Whole Vanilla Beans from Madagascar –
