Slake your thirst for flavour and enjoy Aperitivo hour with us! Perfect with food & friends.   Wild Elixir is a deliciously unique range of Sussex aperitifs from Slake Spirits. Created to celebrate moments of joyful abundance and showcase Sussex’s natural bounty. A naturally sweet but sophisticated blend of Sussex grown Chardonnay, Pinot Gris & Bacchus grapes from Stopham Estate and Slake’s spirit aged in ex-brandy casks for over six months. All-natural flavours with no added sugar. This oak-aged blend is meticulously made to help you make the most of those special moments. Produced annually in October, the first oak cask was filled in 2019 with enough spirit to make ca. 300 bottles, so when it’s gone, it’s gone! As with all our spirits, the bottles are individually numbered with batch & bottle number. Tasting notes: This oak-aged blend has a raisin-like aroma with an almost syrupy fruit character that is perfectly balanced by the dry oak tannins and spice notes on the finish. Serving suggestions: Our oak-aged aperitif is the ideal way to start or finish a meal when served chilled with strong cheddar, mild blue cheese, smoked meats and olives or melon and soft fruits. These versatile spirits can also be enjoyed topped with soda or tonic water to make a refreshing and sophisticated spritz. Storage instructions: Store in a cool, dark place. Once opened keep refrigerated and consume within 3 months. Contains sulphites.
