DISTILLERY LAUNCHES COTSWOLDS OLD TOM GIN

13/10/2019

0 Comments

 
The Cotswolds Distillery have introduce their own twist on the classic Old Tom Gin. 

Dating back to the 18th century, at a time when gin was consumed in copious amounts, this juniper spirit was traditionally sweetened with sugar or liquorice to conceal the astringent qualities of the substandard spirit. Thanks to the thriving craft cocktail scene, Old Tom Gins based on traditional recipes have made a comeback in the past few years.

Tasting Notes
The Cotswolds Old Tom has sweet, woody notes from liquorice root balanced with zesty orange citrus and light spice from the ginger.

Serving suggestions
We enjoy our Old Tom neat, garnished with fresh orange peel, or why not try a Tom Collins cocktail by adding lemon juice, soda and sugar syrup.

It's available now in-store and online.

500ml | 42% ABV | £29.95

THE NEW GIN IN TOWN

11/9/2018

0 Comments

 
After taking 3 years to perfect, Cheltenham Gin is a wonderful new cloudy gin inspired by Cheltenham Racecourse.

Each bottle of Cheltenham Gin contains a unique blend of botanicals, including fresh zest from Spanish oranges and limes and benefits from a double distillation process to create a gin with a very refined, smooth and elegant palate.  

​The wonderful fresh, clean start continues to deeper spices on the mid-palate, adding length and complexity.
