Tom Bullock's Old Tom Gin

Written By Charles Everett

Tom Bullock's Old Tom Gin is a premium spirit that pays homage to Tom Bullock, the first African American to publish a cocktail recipe book, The Ideal Bartender, in 1917. This gin is crafted in a two-centuries-old London distillery and delicately infused with the peel of a Chinese citrus called "Sweet Lime," resulting in a distinctive flavor profile.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: Aromas of juniper complemented by subtle citrus notes from the sweet lime infusion.

  • Palate: A smooth and balanced flavor profile featuring traditional gin botanicals harmonized with the unique sweetness of sweet lime.

  • Finish: Clean and refreshing, with lingering hints of citrus and a gentle sweetness.

Production Details: This Old Tom Gin is imported from a two-centuries-old London distiller. In keeping with Tom Bullock's reputation for creating distinctive cocktails with exotic fruit, the gin is delicately infused with the peel of a curious Chinese citrus called "Sweet Lime."

Accolades: Tom Bullock's Old Tom Gin has been recognized for its quality, earning a Bronze medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
