I was planning on a simple Insta post of this bottle, but there is just too much to say. Shed 1 kindly [gifted] me this bottle of their new Ulverston Gin. I sat down to taste, and several tastes later, I'm still finding new things. This gin is a real beauty, the epitome of a local gin, one that is of course made with locally foraged botanicals, but one that is very much a community project. And the flavour? Well it is probably one of my favourite herbaceous gins out there, for the experience of tasting it. Every time I taste it I find something new, I identify more of the blackcurrant leaf, I find a brighter note I hadn't detected before. Tasting this is like a hedgerow walk, like picking botanicals and squishing them in your fingers and essentially, how that sensory experience is ever changing, ever growing like the plants themselves. The gin launched last week with a limited edition run of 300 bottles. I think they're going to go quick and i just hsd to say something. So this post is more a holding message. I'm working on the article, and it will be published soon. Bravo @shed_1_gin Marvellous stuff. #Shed1 #Gin #ForagedBotanicals #Ulverston #Cumbria https://www.instagram.com/p/CjIITfpMBw0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
