STORY - Having launched our Stockport Gin Original Edition, one of the most common questions we ever got asked when at markets and events was "Do you make a Pink Gin?" So we decided we would! We use the same recipe and production method as our Original Edition Gin but then post infuse it afterwards with juicy raspberries, plump strawberries and a hint of pomegranate to create our Stockport Gin Pink Edition Gin.
TASTING NOTES - Our Stockport Gin Pink Edition is a fruity twist on what is a classic dry gin but keeping the perfect balance of dry Juniper notes.

* We only ever provide a 'recommended serve' for our gins - there is no such thing as a 'perfect serve' as we think it's very important that people enjoy their gin the way they want to - be that with indian tonic, skinny tonic, lemonade, ginger ale or any other mixer you prefer!
