No.9 Hedgerow Gin

Hedgerow Sloe Gin – small batch Derbyshire gin

PRE-ORDER NOW – SHIPPING SEPTEMBER 2026

Handcrafted in the heart of South Derbyshire by the family team at Rudder’s, our No.9 Hedgerow Gin is a rich, fruit-forward craft gin inspired by the wild English countryside.

Each year, we hand forage blackberries, sloes, blackcurrants and damsons from the historic Catton Estate hedgerows surrounding our micro distillery in Derbyshire. The 2025 harvest was personally picked by us at peak ripeness and is now slowly maturing away in our Hedgerow Gin barrel, developing deep colour, bold berry flavour and a beautifully smooth finish ready for bottling later this year.

Made in exceptionally small batches of just 50 bottles, this award-winning artisan gin is a true seasonal release. We sold out completely last year, so we’ve produced a little more for 2026 — but once it’s gone, it’s gone.

AWARD-WINNING!

We craft our gin in small batches, producing only 50 (ish) bottles at a time. While this artisanal approach may result in slight variations in texture and taste due to the nature of distillation, rest assured that our rigorous taste-testing ensures each batch delivers the same exceptional quality with a unique touch.
