If you’re looking for character, Old Tom is your gin: bold, botanical and sweetly citrussy.
For a characterful Martinez, stir 40ml Hayman’s Old Tom Gin, 20ml sweet vermouth, three quarters of a teaspoon maraschino liqueur and 2 dashes orange bitters with ice. Then strain into a coupe glass.
Juniper forward, bold, botanical and sweetly citrussy.

– Good Gin-tentions
This has a nice “old tom” gin flavour, being sweeter and less obviously juniper led than classic “dry” gin. I find the sweetness and flavour very easy drinking, and can make a very nice martini cocktail, where in my opinion a little sweetness takes the hard edge off the drink.
