Gin description
Old Tom Gin was a mainstay of Dickens’ London, and a standard on any respectable barshelf for a century. It seems that enterprising publicans used the symbol of a black cat to signal passersby that Gin could be had therein. One simply dropped a coin in the cat’s mouth and the unseen barkeep would pour a shot to the customer on the street. Our barrel-aged New Tom Gin pays homage to that original style: rich, amber, with a hint of fruity sweetness.
