Wine Enthusiast
Reviewed April 2012A relative newcomer to the gin landscape, this is the proper gin to use for a Tom Collins cocktail. It intentionally leans sweet, but it’s balanced with the right amount of alcohol bite, a lightly piny scent, and faint herbal and citrus peel notes. If using this 19th-century style sweetened gin for other cocktails, be sure to hold off on adding sugar. (KN)
Notes
Old Tom Gin is a botanically rich and slightly sweet version of gin that results in a balanced and mild tipple. This is ideal for a variety of classic cocktails, such as the Martinez -- a San Francisco original and the precursor to the Martini. In a shaker, combine one part Old Tom Gin with a dash Bitters, two dashes Maraschino Liqueur and two parts sweet Vermouth. Shake well and strain into a martini glass. Garnish with a slice of lemon.
