DISTILLERS NOTES
Endeavour Old Tom Gin begins with our 100% organic BC triple-distilled wheat spirit. (10) traditional botanicals are slowly infused during re-distillation in our single copper pot still. The gin is then further macerated with a blend of five additional local and traditional botanicals before resting in 220-litre French Oak barrels for several months, to slowly gain character, complexity and colour.
BC SPIRITS NOTES
I have a thing about barrel aged Old Tom gin, I understand the history thought process but am still unconvinced. That being said, this is a delightful example of “New World” Old Tom, candied fruit, complex spice and perfectly balanced oak component makes this a perfect Martinez base.
Alcohol - 45% / 90 proof
Color - Deeper orange brown with copper edges
Nose - Sweet cut grass with hints of grapefruity juniper
Taste - Complex sweet wood with the grapefruit notes of juniper following on the palate, with hints of dried spices like cardamon, cubeb and the like on the back
Finish - complex sweet oak with juniper and botanicals on the breath out
Best Enjoyed - Give this a go in a classic Martinez with Esquimalt Rosso
