Ransom Old Tom Gin.

I had a sample recently and found it quite tasty.

Using a barley malt base and botanical essences in a corn base, this gin is distilled in a alembic still – not some factory column still. It is then aged – another unusual point for this gin.

I forgot to ask... Is Old Tom style of gin something popular? I've never heard of it before.

Kind of like Genever except for the corn base. Is it like London Dry or does the malt and corn give it a lot more body so to speak.

Juniper is heavy as expected but there are a lot more botanicals in there too. Its not like a London dry at all.

Sounds great! (And I am seldom a gin drinker.)
