Review

Many gin substitutes lean heavily on juniper and other spices to mimic the oily aromatic nature of gin; Sipsmith has avoided this and gone instead for a deliciously light citrus underpinned with hints of pine, that has enough weight to carry the tonic easily without being swamped by it. There is juniper, deep in the mix but it doesn’t overwhelm, and the maker’s notes tell me there is chilli too, which my tongue isn’t attuned enough to pick up, but no doubt is contributing something.  It’s delicious, a careful blend that creates a very confident, balanced and subtle alcohol-free drink.  And the bottle is a thing of beauty, elegant in gold and pale blue with a swan with a coiled neck embossed in the glass.

Makers Notes

It is relatively easy to make gin, however making great gin requires skill, patience and craft. The same applies to alcohol free spirits. The Sipsmith team go to extraordinary lengths to craft the finest possible liquids, and Sipsmith FreeGlider™ was no exception. We experimented with 189 prototypes and over 100 ingredients to create the ultimate alcohol free spirit; one that doesn’t compromise on quality or flavour.
