Read Drink Finder Reviews

The second gin in Salcombes core range of gins (excluding limited editions and collaborations) is named after the iconic ‘Sainte Marie’ lighthouse which marks the Southern entrance to the Old Port of Marseille, from where 19th century Salcombe Fruit Schooners would load citrus fruits and herbs bound for England’s ports. ‘Rosé Sainte Marie’ is inspired by the aromas, flavours and lifestyle of the South of France and is a celebration of adventure, colour, freshness and joy; capturing the vibrant spirit of the Mediterranean coast.Distilled and crafted using the finest Macedonian juniper berries to provide structure in the background, partnered with a natural, but not overpowering soft sweetness from strawberries and angelica. Fresh citrus peels of lemon and orange which are hand peeled each day prior to distillation and combined with ten further hand sourced botanicals including lemon verbena, rose petals, orange blossom and pink peppercorns are combined to create this truly exceptional gin that is elegantly soft and smooth.‘Rosé Sainte Marie’ has fragrant notes of fresh lemon peel and Provence herbs are complemented by the natural sweetness of red fruit and the distinctive perfume of white flowers and orange blossom carried on a sea breeze. Lavender and lemon verbena, along with a hint of white pepper, add subtle finesse. On the palate it has fullness and intensity whilst remaining smooth with an endearing and lingering softness to finish.No added sugar. It is purposefully dry in style, with no added sugar, letting the consumer control their desired level of sweetness of their G&T, through their selection of mixer and garnish.Our Perfect Pour:On its own over ice or with a premium Indian tonic water and a slice of strawberry to accentuate the bouquet of red fruit or a twist of fresh lemon peel to bring the fragrant citrus to the fore. Alternatively try our ‘Salcombe Rosé Spritz’ cocktail.Explore the rest of the Salcombe Gin offerings here.

As a great lover of Salcombe Gins, as soon as we heard rumours the people down in Salcombe were bringing out a 'Pink' gin were eagerly waiting for this to be released! It's very fruity, citrous tasting and doesn't over power you with sweetness like a lot of pink gins do. You can control the sweetness by adding a normal or light tonic and different garnish. We preferred a pre-cut strawberry that has been frozen and a slice of frozen lemon! Definitely another winner from the people down in Salcombe!
