Old Tom Gin is the traditional gateway into gin and gin cocktails; its rounder, richer profile stands out in the simple drinks that launched the cocktail renaissance. Hayman’s Old Tom and soda (with lime to make a Rickey or lemon and sugar to make a Tom Collins) shows this depth easily. Add Rothman & Winter fruit liqueurs or a Génépy to a Tom Collins for little twist. Stir Hayman’s Old Tom with dry or blanc vermouth for a softer Martini that is rich even when ice-cold. 82.8 proof
