I am, I really am enjoying this!
2 years ago I made 2 large batches of sloe wine and one big batch of sloe liqueur.
I still have some of it and once in a while I treat myself to one or the other snifter.
I tastes even better when consumed from that small goblet I turned out of soapstone.
Cheers!

I've never heard of this drink but I gotta admit, that taste description sounds pretty good. Might try to hunt some down

Not really being a Gin person, I have always wondered about Sloe Gin. Does the Sloe just affect the taste or the strength or both? I have always meant to ask Nagy...

Well in this case it is both. It tastes of sloe (double plus good), but it only has 26% which in my book makes it a ladies drink *blushesslightly*.
Cheers!

26% thats strong Vino or weak Gin?

Gin usually has 40% (sometime 37,5% ) alcohol where I live, your mileage may vary!
The measurement of alcohol % here in gog is in ABV[^].

Yup here in England less than 37% (I think!) you have to class it as White spirit (commonly made from wood grain, mostly used for cleaning), back in my Uni days a Medical Student I knew built a still to fortify weak gin. Wonder what happened to him!

So you take something that tastes terrible, soak it in gin and then drink it (in the middle of winter.) So is there Haggis Gin? Marmite Gin?

If they taste terrible you must be doing something wrong, like picking them unripe or before the first night frosts.
Or sucking them from your $54@#&'§ putrid kvñt, that'll ruin the flavor for sure.

You've hit the nail on the head. I'd be hesitant to clean dog urine off my car tires with gin - the urine being, well, less unseemly. I've no experience with the urine, but I'd image the taste difference dog urine and gin would be minimal.

Was it the clear bottle with a red on yellow label? That is Gordon's, very good Export Gordon's. It's my job to know these things.

"Clear bottle, red print on yellow lable" was the stuff I was looking for. Forever and a day is this the look of Gordon's in Merkelland.
I'll have to take a picture of the bottle in question and post it.

This is an old one.
It will go up the chimney down or down the chimney down, but not up the chimney up or down the chimney up.
