8.5/10

Hernö Old Tom Gin is a masterfully balanced Scandinavian take on the classic Old Tom style, weaving Nordic botanicals like meadowsweet and lingonberry through a juniper-forward backbone that excels in cocktails from the Tom Collins to the Martinez.

Sophia Laurent VIPsAllowed — Balanced Old Tom
8/10

Hernö achieve a balance in their Old Tom that many miss — the meadowsweet sweetness is restrained, the juniper backbone is smooth, and the measured coriander-cassia warmth at 43% adds depth. The lingonberry tartness is a nice touch.

10/10

Hernö Old Tom redefines what Old Tom can be. The floral honeyed meadowsweet, rich resinous juniper, tart lingonberry, subtle vanilla, and measured coriander-cassia warmth at 43% ABV create something extraordinary. The lingering meadowsweet-juniper harmony on the finish is pure magic.

8/10

Hernö bring a distinctly Nordic approach to Old Tom. The meadowsweet florals, lingonberry tartness, and vanilla warmth at 43% feel uniquely Scandinavian. The dry angelica root conclusion provides a clean finish.
