Old Tom Gin by Sky Wave Gin 700ml 41% ABV

Old Tom is a very old style of English gin, dating back to the 17th Century. Production techniques and ingredients were often very poor, resulting in a rough-tasting drink. It was therefore sweetened slightly, and sometimes lightly spiced, to make it palatable, as it would usually have been drunk neat. This often resulted in a spirit that was no longer clear.

'Sky Wave Old Tom delivers everything you hope for from an Old Tom Gin. It is instantly fitting of the historic Old Tom style with its classic core of botanicals and sweetness which is pleasingly present without being overbearing, whilst plentiful soft spices bring warmth and balance and undertones of citrus give gently bright lifts of flavour'. - Paul Jackson, Editor, The Gin Guide, The Worldwide Guide to Gin and Distilleries, For Gin Lovers and the Trade.

Sky Wave has been faithful to this style, creating an exquisitely crafted historic gin brought up to date for the discerning 21st century drinker.

Tasting Notes
