Descripción

The history of Ableforth’s Bathtub Gin goes back to the time of American Prohibition, when alcohol was often produced under adventurous conditions. Due to the lack of legally available alcohol at the time, people resorted to low-quality or even denatured alcohol and mixed it with juniper and other spices in bathtubs at home. The herbs and spices were left in the alcohol for several days or weeks to improve its taste and conceal its inferior quality. This gave rise to the term «bathtub gin».

Ableforth’s Bathtub Old Tom Gin is characterized by a clear taste profile with an exciting, slightly peppery nuance.

This premium gin is distilled in traditional copper stills and is given its characteristic note through the addition of specific aromas and a slight sweetness. The result is a relatively strong gin that impresses with expressive fruity notes and the sweetness typical of Old Tom. This makes Ableforth’s Bathtub Old Tom an excellent choice for lovers of refined gins.
