Distiller Notes
2018 San Francisco World Spirits Gold Medal Winner
Langley’s England brings a refined Old Tom, a classic, mildly sweeter, gin style of Victorian London into a modern setting. The drink is a quality gin that holds notes and secrets of a bygone era.
Langley’s Old Tom offers aromas of juniper and creamy orange essence with a touch of juicy tangerine notes. On the palate there is a slow kick of juniper, fennel, nutmeg, lemon peel and coriander that develops to a smooth, soft, sweetened finish that lingers. More botanically intense and sweeter than a London Dry.

Enjoying an enthusiastic resurgence in modern cocktail culture, Gin, a.k.a. ‘Dutch Courage,’ was originally touted as a 16th century cure for cowardice and stomach ailments. Arguably the broadest and most dynamic category of spirits in terms of flavor profiles and production styles, Gin is a distilled grain spirit that derives its primary flavor from juniper berries and secondary flavors from a dazzling array of spices, herbs, fruits and botanicals. It is both produced and enjoyed all around the world and is most commonly mixed into cocktails such as the Martini or simply added to tonic water.
