Silent Pool Gin-Infused Smoked Salmon

main
Silent Pool Distillers and Coln Valley Smokehouse, two artisan producers, have created a smoked salmon like you have never tasted before.

Imagine the delicious, smokey taste of salmon, cured in one of England’s last traditional smokehouses, infused with a high proof gin which is hand-crafted to accentuate kaffir lime and juniper berries, two of the key botanicals used in the production of this multi-award winning gin.

The idea of infusing salmon with a concentrated gin that exaggerates key botanicals was the brainchild of Silent Pool Distiller’s Director, Ian McCulloch and Andrew Leigh, Chairman of John Ross Jr ( Aberdeen ), holders of the Queens Warrant for fish curing who happen to be based in Hatchlands Park in Clandon. A lover of wild food and game, with a keen sense of place, Ian was passionate about capturing the essence of the beautiful Surrey Hills in Silent Pool Gin and excited by the creative possibilities of marrying the spirit with a high quality smoked salmon.

“I love smoked salmon, and Silent Pool Gin has this fantastic citrus and juniper-driven flavour, so putting them together is really the best of both worlds,” he said. Coln Valley MD Mark Osborne said: “The flavour is very different and I think they work very well together. It is an exciting new product for us!”

The gin-infused salmon will be available for purchase from the distillery’s on-site shop, it’s website ( silentpooldistillers.com ) as well as from quality food shops throughout the Surrey area prior to Christmas.
