Makar Old Tom Gin
glasgowdistillery.com Reviewed by Gin School; distillery has not claimed entry
Makar Old Tom is a Glasgow-distilled old tom gin, the sweeter, rounder historic style, built on juniper, angelica, black pepper, liquorice, coriander, orange peel, lemon peel, sweet almond and honey. GinSchool tip: honey is what defines an old tom's gentle sweetness, smoothing the juniper's edge, an easy way to soften a bill if you find dry gin too sharp.
