History,
Old Tom is a sweeter, richer amber gin that dates back to the 18th century. Back then, sugar and flavorings were added to mask impurities. It's still made that way today.
At Aviation, they have their own way of doing things. Aviation Old Tom is aged for one year in used whiskey barrels made from American White Oak. The aging process brings out the democratic blend of botanicals so this Old Tom mixes like a gin and drinks neat like a whiskey.
Tasting Notes,
Nose:The fragrance is both floral and sweet with notes of vanilla, citrus, and pine.
Palate: Aviation Gin is already a smooth, soft Spirit with a floral/savory profile. The aging in Whiskey casks adds a caramel sweetness and a note of Christmas cake.
Finish: The finish is medium length and lightly sweet.
