Also spotted these are out early (as everything else has been too!) + will be collecting this weekend or next.
Damson gin beats sloe gin for me. But I haven't found any damsons near us (yet). There are some apricot trees though - apricot brandy this year, I think...
Daaammmn, I should have done this with the glut of apricots from next doors tree! I easily had a 'bag for life' full of the damn things. They come all at once and then last like 10 mins once off the tree!
Sloes were out super early this year. Hopefully I can get some collected this weekend and get the gin going for winter :)
