Brothers Old Tom Gin

Coming out of Albuquerque, New Mexico, Brothers Old Tom Gin is an award-winning effort that takes an old-fashioned approach that emphasizes barley and sweetness to capture the true essence of what has made this drink a classic. Its clear appearance belies the many sense-seducing delights that await those who taste it. From a lemon and nutmeg aroma that also welcomes whiffs of cinnamon raisin with a hint of herbs. The taste connects with the palate, even if there's less juniper used. The bite it offers is countered with the citrus-oriented hints that will likely only spend a short time on the tongue.The flavor emerges thanks to a dozen botanicals that help bring about a sugary sample that can be perfect for cocktails. You can transport yourself back to the Prohibition era when you sample these (without worrying about any dubious bathtub gin) either straight up or through a cocktail.
