Hayman’s Old Tom Gin is a classic Old Tom Gin from Hayman Distillers. This is an old-fashioned, sweeter style gin from the 18th Century, and it has recently risen in popularity thanks to its assocation with classic gin cocktails including the Martinez and the Tom Collins. It Imparts a more complex experience than other styles of gin by balancing a botanical intensity with a light sweetness. Provides a well-rounded taste experience with depth, perfect for classic gin cocktails.

‘Old Tom’ is a style of gin originally popular in the 18th century. Back then distillation techniques were not as advanced and consequently the base spirits from which the gins of the day were produced tended on the rough side. To mask this and produce a more palatable spirit, gin makers added sugar so producing a slightly sweetened gin. This style of gin gradually died out giving way to the London dry style which dominates the gin market today. This was driven by improved distillation and also a change in fashion, partly led by the launch of the brut style of champagne.
