Sound Spirits Old Tom Gin

Old Tom Gin is an old method of distilling gin that became popular in the 18th-Century and helped establish the spirit as a staple liquor. It went out of fashion for a time, but has seen a resurgence in recent years. This is largely duy to small distilleries that have tried their hand at it. Sound Spirits offers a solid Old Tom Gin. As is the style, it is less piney and slightly sweeter that typical gins. This makes it a pleasant spirit to drink neat, since it tends to go down smoother than most London dry gins. The natural sweetness also helps enhance cocktails such as Tom Collins, which tend to be on the more sugary side.
