About this deal

Table 2: The aroma of the lavender is enhanced with herbs and the smell of the sea. This is a classic English country house gin, When diluted with water and or tonic, this gin really sings with depth and complexity. Table 3: A clean and distinctive aroma, with mineral notes and an appealing freshness - this is certainly oceanic on the nose, reminiscent of sea salt spray. In the mouth, the heat builds to a lemon sherbet finish - bolstered by the lavender, perhaps - leaving an aftertaste that is nutty and slightly toasted. With the addition of water this finish achieved further balance. A sophisticated, accomplished drink. We enjoyed the journey of the flavour profile - particularly that clean, woody aftertaste. A little adjustment to bring out the citrus tones further would have taken this to the top for us.

Pour half of the cure into a large plastic container big enough to hold the fish and cure, lay the salmon on top and pour on the remaining cure. Cover and chill. Fantastically peppery on the nose, with good levels of juniper, citrus and floral characters, along with hints of cardamom. Sweet and rounded on the palate, with really bright, fresh spices making their presence felt, followed by an intoxicating spiced finish which continues to linger on the palate with a bitter finish, presenting a rich, smooth complexity. Well balanced with continued evolving character and depth and a wealth of lingering, punchy flavour and a lasting botanical finish. The distillery, which has won several awards for its artisan spirits, aims to become a destination for gin enthusiasts and tourists alike, putting York firmly on the British gin drinker’s map by offering daily distillery tours, weekly gin tasting events and catering for private parties, corporate hospitality and business networking groups. The curious, whimsical story of The Hooting Owl Distillery and the legend of Sir Owlfred Tyton Hodgins, is as captivating and mysterious as the history of Barmby Moor House itself.Making good use of the extensive old stable building at Barmby Moor House, Hooting Owl is home to a fully equipped craft distillery, expertly distilling a range of traditional dry gins and other premium craft spirits combining a carefully researched and selected blend of botanicals. Inspired by the story of the house itself and by the geography, culinary heritage and abundant produce of Yorkshire, Hooting Owl also adds a hint of family and military history to the mix. The proposed location, which will be named ‘The Hooting Owl & Curious Cat Distillery’, will be developed to allow for expansion and to offer visitors “an immersive experience” with a large distillation area, event space and a speakeasy gin lounge, where York spirit lovers will be able to sample the in-house range of craft gin, rum and vodka. Put the beetroot, sugar and salt in a food processor and whizz to a puree. then add the remaining cure. Table 3: We were immediately enticed by this product's aroma: fantastically peppery on the nose, with what seemed to be hints of cardamom. The texture is a little on the thin side - we would have liked something creamier in this aspect - but the taste itself was very pleasant, with a lasting botanical finish and a cardamom-type flavour that also carried through when tonic was added (though not as much as one of our judges would have liked). Table 6: A fruit heavy nose that Judges enjoyed gives way to a refreshing and bright taste, the floral aspects of which were enhanced rather than muted by the addition of tonic. Really quite lovely.

New external signage has been submitted in the planning proposal which will display the venue’s name, incorporating Hooting Owl and Manchester based Curious Cat Distillery, a major shareholder in the proposed venture.The Hooting Owl Distillery, based in the historic village of Barmby Moor in the Yorkshire Wolds, takes inspiration and flavours from around the Yorkshire region to create a top-quality range of hand-crafted, small batch spirits.
