Want to discover an artisanal Old Tom gin before choosing the full bottle? This 5cl size is perfect for a tasting.

Old Tom Gin finds its origins in 18th century London, a time when gin was both banned... and yet omnipresent. While the authorities tried to curb its consumption, clandestine distillers became more inventive: to make their gin more pleasant, they added sugar or aromatic herbs, giving rise to a smoother and more fragrant gin.

His name? It would come from signs in the shape of a black cat ("Old Tom") that discreetly indicated illegal points of sale. Customers would slip a coin into a slot, and a glass of gin would be discreetly served to them through a tube.

Today, Erika Spirit revisits this historic classic with a French and organic touch. This Old Tom gin follows the same base as the Erika Dry Gin, with a post-distillation maceration of rosemary, tarragon, and Provins rose. It is then delicately sweetened with Dordogne acacia honey.

The result? A gourmet, coppery, and floral gin, with warm and complex notes. It features juniper berries, Sansho pepper, walnut leaves, honey, and flowers picked in Dordogne.

This gin won a silver medal at the 2021 Lyon International Competition and can be enjoyed neat to appreciate its full richness.

Format : 5 cl | Organic | 40% vol | Made in France – Bergerac, Dordogne

I just wanted to thank you for your wonderful service in providing truly interesting gins and tonics. I placed my first order in early April [2020] and even in these difficult times, your delivery service has excelled.... I have now had the chance to enjoy the two bottles of gin that I ordered and they did not disappoint me. Once again, thank you for your wonderful friendly service.

I have been very pleased with all the gin boxes I have received from Ginsations. I like the fact that the gins are French and come from small distilleries. This means that they each have their own flavor. The tonics included are just a little different and better than the usual leading brands. The boxes are beautifully packaged and I can't wait for them to arrive. I am very satisfied with the products and service provided and am happy to wholeheartedly recommend Ginsations.

It's been several months now that I wanted to leave a few words about Ginsations, because I think I received one of their first subscription boxes and I continue to order them. Every couple of months, I look forward to the next box, because its contents never fail to impress. Not only do I get a fabulous artisanal gin, which I probably would never have been able to get without this subscription, but the box also comes with extra goodies...I can't recommend Ginsations enough!
