Gooseberry Liqueur

We love gooseberries! And our Gooseberry Gin is really popular. We’ve been pondering a Gooseberry Liqueur for some time now so this week we’ve had a go. Using the lovely local gooseberries from Cattows Farm in Ibstock, we have just finished our first batch. We’ve made it in the same way as all of our other liqueurs, the traditional French way, by soaking the gooseberries in wine first.

The end product is a delicate pale green colour at 18%. We’ll be designing some new labels ready for our 50ml, 200ml and 500ml bottles. But the testing comes first. So we’ll be taking some sample bottles out to our next few markets to see what our customers think. From there we will tweak and refine before it becomes part of our main summer offer.

If you love gooseberries as much as we do, be sure to find us somewhere and try it.
