Bathtub Gin - Old Tom 50cl

Richer, rounder, and slightly sweeter - Old Tom gin in a nutshell. You don't see the style too often these days, but it earns a place on the shelves, especially if you're mixing up pre-Prohibition classic cocktails like a Tom Collins or a Martinez. Like the Bathtub Original, it's got a golden tinge, but here a touch of sweetness softens the spice and citrus, giving it a warmer, more integrated feel. For cocktails that need a bit of sweetness to balance sharp acidity, this is the one to reach for.

In 2011, the guys behind Bathtub Gin, frustrated by the lack of bold-flavoured options on the market, took a leaf from the Prohibition era. Inspired by the illicit bathtub gins of the 1920s, they crafted a spirit that stood out. With its distinctive faux brown paper bag packaging, Bathtub Gin quickly carved out its niche and it didn't take long for it to gather a loyal following, drawn to its audacious flavour profile and rustic presentation. A nod to the past with a modern twist.
