Old Tom Gin is the spirited bridge between the forefather of gin, known as Genever, and the popular juniper-forward London dry style. Old Tom tends to fall on the sweeter side of the gin spectrum, making it a good gin for sipping. Our Mockingbird Old Tom Style Gin came out of the still juniper forward and spent some time resting in a mead barrel. After aging, the spirit was infused with a touch of honey. The result is a golden and bright gin with a deep, floral nose that finishes with just a kiss of sweetness.
