Ampleforth Abbey Trading Monastic produce

Ampleforth Abbey Elderberry Gin
Elder grows in profusion along the byways around Ampleforth Abbey. Picked at their best, these berries give to the simple gin complex fruity, earthy and mineral flavours.

Elderberry has been used to promote health since Old Testament times. Claims are made for it boosing the immune system, protecting the cardiovascular system and the suppression of virus activity. But exceptional claims are made for its ability to reduce stress levels and the effects of stress.
