Rhubarb, rhubarb, whether you love it or hate it, most of the rhubarb eaten in this country is actually grown here in Yorkshire.
00:08
It became a popular ingredient in the 18th century and now it still is amongst people who like a bit of rhubarb crumble, a bit of rhubarb pie.
00:18
Well now you can get rhubarb gin, rhubarb jam, lots of rhubarb stuff because obviously Wakefield where I am today,
00:26
which is home of the Rhubarb Festival, is actually part of the Rhubarb Triangle.
00:30
Yes, that's the triangle of Wakefield, Rothwell and Morley. It's about a seven mile, nine mile even, triangular space.
00:40
And most of the rhubarb is grown in sheds and it's because Yorkshire has some of the best soil to grow as red friendly friend.
00:50
Let's go and check out Wakefield's annual food and drink festival. Oh, and there's Madame Rhubarb there.
00:56
So it's gin time and sadly I can't have any, but what's special about this gin?
01:01
So here at Sing Gin, we're a small family distillery. We make everything in-house ourselves.
01:05
The difference with us and our product is that we are a gin made out of grape juice.
01:11
Using grape alcohol is silky, smooth and it's really quite rare that not many people do it.
01:16
Brilliant, so I can get squashing grapes. Absolutely. Get squashing grapes for you.
