It was both fun and engaging to balance botanical ratios as well as making the right heads, hearts and tails cuts. Award-winning Harrogate Tipple Premium Gin celebrates the fusion of fresh botanicals including Lavender and Pink Grapefruit with Harrogate Spring Water.

Experienced Master Distiller, Tom Nichol, has lovingly created a classic gin by fusing traditional processes with a modern approach. The perfect recipe of the finest, fresh botanicals, handpicked from the 750-year-old gardens at the Ripley Castle Estate. We especially enjoyed the distilling room where Ben expertly guided us through the distillation process and the huge variety of botanicals we could use in making our own gin. The result is a delicious gin with a complex flavour that is perfect for sipping on its own or mixing into your favourite cocktails. We are a small batch, family run distillery based in the beautiful and historical Ripley Castle Estate in Harrogate, North Yorkshire.Inspired by the historic estate that surrounds us, we have created a beautifully balanced British gin of exceptional quality with sweet and floral notes. Master Distiller, Tom Nichol, has lovingly created this classic gin by fusing traditional processes with a modern approach. The much-loved Rhubarb, Gooseberry, Marmalade and Blackberry Gins from the core range all started their Slingsby journeys this way. With its very own event space and distillery room, Spirit of Harrogate also hosts three unique gin experiences, Spirit of Gin, Master Distiller and the new Winter Cocktail Masterclass. Fresh lavender, blended with citrus notes from pink grapefruit and orange peel, beautifully accentuates the flavour.
