A NEW Castle Howard Gin has been created using herbs and fruit foraged from its estate.
The stately home has teamed up with Sloemotion Distillery to launch the classic juniper-led dry spirit. The partnership has been developed out of shared interests between Castle Howard’s estate conservation programme and the ethos o fthe Barton-le-Willows-based distillery.
Nicholas Howard said: “Joff Curtoys, founder of Sloemotion Distillery sits on our Conservation Advisory Board, and their work using botanicals sourced from their local surroundings at Green Farm resonated with our wish to develop high quality, sustainable products from the estate here.""
Castle Howard Gin is available in 70cl bottles from its Farm Shop or website for £39.99.
