Tasting Notes

Nose

Vanilla and spearmint with fennel — orange gummy sweetness with peppery hints from the cask influence

Palate

Candied lemon peel, vanilla and cinnamon spice — genever-like mouthfeel yet still juniper-forward, classic gin flavours enhanced by the cask and honey

Finish

Silky orange with warming spice — the Fermanagh honey providing natural sweetness in the 18th-century tradition

Expert Review

7.8/10

Boatyard Old Tom Gin is a well-crafted expression of the historically significant Old Tom style, bottled at an approachable 41% ABV and perfectly suited to classic cocktails like the Tom Collins and Martinez.
