Gin of the Month at The Cave

The Cave in Milford on Sea village centre have launched their Gin of the Month for March 2023.

Sing Gin is Distilled in small batches, with a unique blend of seven beautiful botanicals which harmonise to create a rare and tantalising freshness with distinct floral undertones.

In The Beginning... Sing Gin's founder, Ian installed a little copper pot still in his cellar, surrounded himself with botanicals and began experimenting. After recreating his favourite gins and getting the hang of which botanicals worked best together, he developed a recipe that captured the spirit of his beloved Yorkshire Dales, and won his family’s approval too.

Sing Gin is now made in the Dales village of Kettlesing. They let the botanicals steep overnight inside Bella, their steel and copper still (named after their first family dog). Then the grape spirit and botanicals are distilled in 50-litre batches. Small batches offer higher quality control. Four hours later, the gin is ready to enjoy.

Juniper, mint, orange peel and flax are among the seven top-quality botanicals Sing Gin uses. Flax is especially dear to to them as it is an historic Yorkshire crop, and they grow the flax ourselves. Rather than using whole botanicals, they crush all of theirs by hand with a large mortar and pestle. Extracting the oils in this way helps them to achieve their signature strength of flavour and aroma.

Sing Gin is crafted from grape-based spirit rather than grain. Grape delivers a silky smoothness that, in Ian's opinion, grain can’t quite match. Grape was actually an ingredient in the world’s very first juniper spirits back in the 13th century, so it’s a nice nod to tradition.
