Ableforth’s Old Tom Gin is a lightly sweetened gin made with juniper, coriander, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, and the finest orange peel. Crafted entirely by hand using a time-honoured ‘cold-compounding’ technique, the best copper-pot-still spirit has been applied to the aforementioned botanicals before being lightly sweetened with cane sugar. Ableforth’s Old Tom Gin is absolutely perfect in a Martinez Cocktail.At some would have it, Old Tom gin takes its name from an illicit method of dispensing gin as practised by one Captain Dudley Bradstreet in the 18th century. A sign was erected outside Bradstreet’s premises carrying the image of a cat. Thirsty patrons would deposit their penny in a slot, and receive a slug of gin from a tube under the cat’s paw in return. This superb gin is naturally coloured by the botanicals which lend a most curious tint to the liquid. Mix With Double Dutch Tonic Garnish With Orange Wedges
