Hayman’s Old Tom Gin : A Classic with a Sweet Twist

Hayman’s Old Tom Gin is a time-honored spirit based on an original family recipe from the 1860s, reviving the traditional style of Old Tom gin, which predates the drier London Dry style. Produced by the Hayman family, this gin is a staple for bartenders and cocktail enthusiasts alike, offering a slightly sweeter and more botanically intense flavor profile than most gins on the market. With an ABV of 41.4%, it has become the go-to gin for classic cocktails such as the Tom Collins or Martinez.

What sets Hayman’s Old Tom Gin apart is its balanced mix of 10 botanicals, including juniper, coriander, licorice, and citrus peel. The gin is delicately sweetened post-distillation, which enhances the natural flavors without overpowering them. Expect flavors of juniper with undertones of citrus, spice, and subtle floral notes. The palate offers a creamy texture with a touch of licorice and earthy tones, leading to a lingering, smooth finish.

Hayman’s Old Tom Gin excels in classic cocktails, where its sweetness can enhance drinks like the Gin Fizz, Martinez, or French 75. For a perfect match, enjoy it with seafood or light salads to complement its citrus and herbal notes.
