Ableforth Bathtub Old Tom Gin (50cl)
This award-winning Bathtub Gin takes a while to perfect, but they think it’s worth it.
First, copper pot-distilled gin is made with juniper, coriander and other fragrant botanicals, but they don’t stop there.
Instead, they take a portion of this gin and painstakingly infuse it with a further six fresh botanicals - a process which takes a whole week to do…(which might seem like a lot of effort,
but you get out what you put in as they say, and if they want a delicious gin then it needs to be made deliciously!)
This infusion process allows those fresh botanical flavours – too delicate to survive traditional distillation – to shine through, and Bathtub Gin is left with its unique flavour and distinctive hue.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Fresh and bold juniper leads the way with fragrant citrus and cardamom. Notes of fresh orange peel and cinnamon add to an enticing nose.
Taste: Juniper again leads, but there’s plenty more besides. The mouthfeel is thick and creamy whilst the cloves, coriander and cardamom offer depth.
Finish: Here the supporting botanicals really shine with lingering cardamom and orange peel on the tail.
