The story behind...
Gindome's Old Tom gin pays homage to gin's history, inspired by the "gin craze" era. As gin gained popularity, heavy taxation by the British government drove the industry underground. To signify where gin was still available, establishments displayed black wooden cats called Old Toms, with a discreet money slot under their paw. Patrons would slide cash down the slot for a shot of gin. Gindome's Old Tom preserves this historical essence, offering a blend of tradition and innovation in every sip.
