A True Kiwi Original:

Introducing Humdinger's Sloe Gin – an unmatched symphony of 100% New Zealand-grown sloe berries. A product of our rich soils, distinctive topography, and unique climate, each bottle resonates with the heartbeats of our orchards.

We handpick our sloe berries at the pinnacle of their ripeness and promptly snap freeze them. This technique reveals the most nuanced aromas and flavors, allowing us to craft a gin that boasts luscious plum and almond undertones. A hint of sugar syrup is meticulously added, ensuring a perfect interplay of tartness, warmth, and depth.

Why Our Sloe Gin Stands Out:

It's not just gin; it's an experience shaped by our terroir. The very essence of New Zealand's natural environment – from our fertile soil to our temperate climate – is infused in every drop, distinguishing our Sloe Gin from the rest.

Serving Suggestions:

Relish it neat, pour over ice, or add a splash of soda water for a refreshing twist. For an elevated treat, indulge in a Humdinger Sloe Gin Fizz for a true Geraldine Sloe Gin cocktail.

Putting quality first is the main ingredient for our successful New Zealand gins. This is why we have established an orchard of over 1,000 Sloe trees (Blackthorns), so we can have fresh, locally grown sloes picked at peak ripeness to capture the brightest possible flavours.

Sloe ♥️

I come from a family of sloe gin makers. My mother and my aunt used to make it in England almost 100 years ago now. When I first came to New Zealand, you could not find it anywhere. We first visited Humdinger in Geraldine when they were just setting up the premises, before the big move to the new place was even a flicker in their eyes. We tried the regions they had on offer, with the delicious citrus being a fave. First forward 3years, and my partner bought me the double pack of Sloe gin for my birthday, and followed that up with the citrus and the Rangpur Lime for Xmas, &2gorgeous glasses too!
All of the products are wonderful and smooth and high-quality. Unfortunately my mother cannot drink alcohol any more, but I am enjoying the Sloe Gin on her behalf on a regular basis. It really is superb. Finely crafted. Can’t wait for the next batch ♥️ Ngā mihi nui Humdinger!

Beautiful smooth liqueur, looking forward to sipping over ice on a cold night by the fire. But really enjoyed the friendly welcoming and informative conversation instore, very positive and didn’t make you feel stupid as a novice gin drinker. Will definitely be back and bring our visitors to Geraldine for this experience 🤍

Delicious!

A beautiful smooth gin that is amazing on its own or with a mixer. My only complaint is that the bottles need to be bigger as it’s too easy to drink and disappears quickly 😀

Hi Jenna,
Thanks a lot for enjoying the Sloe Gin, and for leaving such kind words! We are looking at offering the Sloe Gin in a larger bottle for the next vintage, so you might be in luck!
As a way of showing our appreciation for your review, we will pop a little thank you on the courier for you to enjoy.
Cheers, Andrew @ Humdinger
