Citadelle No Mistake Old Tom Gin 46% – Classic Old Tom with historical depth

Citadelle No Mistake Old Tom Gin 46% is a tribute to the original gin style that dominated classic cocktail books in the late 1800s. Before London Dry took the world by storm, it was Old Tom gin that set the standard – softer, rounder and slightly sweeter than the dry versions we know today. Here’s an authentic and characterful interpretation that brings history straight to your glass.

Old Tom gin became extremely popular in Britain in the 18th century and was so widespread that it sparked moral panic during the famous “Gin Craze”. It was the gin that caused the scandal – and laid the foundation for modern cocktail culture. Citadelle No Mistake revives this style with finesse and precision.

With an alcoholic strength of 46%, this gin is both powerful and balanced. The classic juniper profile is retained, but rounded off with a subtle sweetness and extra body, making it ideal for historic cocktails like Tom Collins, Martinez or an authentic Gin Punch.

If you want to make cocktails as they were originally intended – or simply experience the golden era of gin – Citadelle No Mistake Old Tom is the obvious choice.
