Salcombe Gin
In the natural harbour of the Kingsbridge Estuary, South Devon's pretty town of Salcombe is the so-called "Hamptons of the UK", renowned for stunning views, shipbuilding and sailing. Of course, a drop of mother's ruin usually washes up with maritime heritage. Paying homage to the 19th-century Salcombe Fruiters - ships that carried cargoes of fruits and spices - Salcombe Gin infuses citrus and aromatics in copper stills to create its award-winning Start Point and blushing Rosé Sainte Marie. Bottles and merch are available for delivery, but for a taste par excellence, plan one of its staycation experiences and a lesson at its gin school.
