Why It’s On Our Shelves
Bold, bright & beautifully aromatic
Produced in Norfolk by WhataHoot →
Juicy raspberry meets the gently aromatic spice of pink peppercorn in this distinctive full-strength Norfolk gin, hand-distilled by WhataHoot in the heart of historic King’s Lynn.
WhataHoot Raspberry & Pink Peppercorn Gin is made with real fruit and bottled at 40% ABV, creating a fruit-led gin that retains the strength and botanical character of a proper gin rather than becoming overly sweet.
Raspberry brings natural fruitiness and a gentle sweetness, while pink peppercorn adds a subtle aromatic, peppery note that provides contrast and complexity. It's an unusual combination, but one that works particularly well – bright fruit followed by a delicate spicy lift.
Serve over plenty of ice with your favourite tonic and garnish with fresh or dried raspberries and a few pink peppercorns.
What does Raspberry & Pink Peppercorn Gin taste like?
Expect ripe raspberry fruitiness balanced by a gently aromatic, peppery spice.
The raspberry gives the gin its bright fruit character, while pink peppercorn provides a subtle warmth and complexity that helps balance the natural sweetness of the fruit.
It's fruity without simply being sweet and makes an interesting alternative to more conventional berry-flavoured gins.
Why put pink peppercorn in raspberry gin?
Pink peppercorns are prized for their aromatic, gently spicy character rather than intense pepper heat.
Paired with raspberry, they provide a contrasting savoury-spicy note that complements the fruit and gives the gin additional depth. The combination makes this a particularly interesting choice for anyone looking for something a little different from a straightforward raspberry gin.
Is WhataHoot Raspberry & Pink Peppercorn a full-strength gin?
Yes. WhataHoot Raspberry & Pink Peppercorn Gin is bottled at 40% ABV, making it a full-strength gin rather than a lower-strength gin liqueur.
It's also made using real fruit, bringing genuine raspberry character to the finished spirit.

Why we like it
Raspberry and pink peppercorn is a clever pairing. You get the familiar juicy fruitiness of raspberry followed by something rather less expected – that gentle aromatic spice from the peppercorn.
Add the fact that it's made with real fruit, bottled at a proper 40% ABV and hand-distilled just along the coast in King’s Lynn, and there's plenty to distinguish this from an everyday flavoured gin.
