Gin Hayman'S Old Tom 70cl

The Hayman's Old Tom Gin cl.70 is an exquisite reinterpretation of an almost forgotten style of gin, particularly popular in Victorian England. This spirit is a celebration of the richness and complexity of 19th century gin, featuring a gentle sweetness that distinctly sets it apart from contemporary dry gins.

With its centuries-old history, Hayman's distillery produces this Old Tom Gin using a family recipe that dates back to the 1870s. The key characteristics of this gin stem from the meticulous selection of botanicals, including standout ingredients such as juniper, licorice root, and catnip, which are gently distilled to preserve their pure and intense aromas.

Hayman's Old Tom Gin appears with a clear and crystalline color. On the nose, it offers an aromatic bouquet that balances the sweetness of juniper with aromatic notes of herbs and spices. On the palate, the gin is remarkably round and smooth, featuring a honey-like sweetness complemented by an echo of citrus and spices leading to a long and pleasantly complex finish.

This gin is ideal for sipping neat on ice, but it also excels in classic cocktails like the Martinez or Tom Collins, where its intrinsic sweetness can truly shine. Hayman's Old Tom Gin is an excellent choice for spirit enthusiasts who appreciate a product with rich history and a distinctive flavor profile. Each sip is a journey through the history of gin, offering an experience that is as educational as it is indulgently delightful.
