scrubworm 0 Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 i have talked about this here before ,sloe gin ,i even thuoght it would be possible for me to grow my own sloe berries but then someone kindly informed me that it would take quite awhile to do that , as the bushes take some time come to maturity .so i managed to purchase a bottle of sloe gin here in australia and shit that was good stuff ,i dont like gin but that sloe gin damn was something special .we finished the bottle of tonight and whilst we can grab another one , and will , i was wondering if there is some really nice, special , kind considerate ,person that would part with some small portion of this raved about english sloe gin ,not sure what sort of an exchange we can agree on but i/we would dearly love to ,aquire some of this special stuff . we will be in england in your summer time for five weeks ,travelling all over but staying with rellies in derby ,Llantwit ,glastonbury.i doubt if this will help us get our hands on some sloe gin but shit this was the best place to ask ,cheers ,scrubworm.

Cornio 0 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Don't bother with the shop-bought stuff. You need to acquire something home-made of an indeterminate strength. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cornio 0 Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 I imagine that it's quite thin on the ground at the moment. It was a crap year for sloes last year, not many about at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was a crap year for sloes last year, not many about at all. I didnt get any sloes at all last year or any damsons thats why I said buy some as there wont be many people with any left.
