Certified Scottish Gin
All our packaging can be recycled
Christmas Old Tom from Orkney Gin Company is an Old Tom Scottish Gin that brings together classic juniper and a festive blend of cinnamon, clove, nutmeg and dried citrus. A touch of natural sweetening creates the gentle rounded character expected of an Old Tom style, allowing warming spice and bright citrus to sit harmoniously with the underlying botanicals. The result is a winter expression that celebrates the season while retaining the clarity and balance at the heart of the Orkney Gin Company range.

About Orkney Gin Company
Gary and Andrea Watt, Orcadians and husband and wife team behind Orkney Gin Company, started making homemade gin as a Christmas gift for family and friends. Realising how much they enjoyed the process and going by the feedback they received from family and friends, The Orkney Gin Company was established, which now includes their daughter Erin. Gary and Andrea knew they wanted to create something truly original but with a sense of heritage and connection to the surrounding land. They opted for the cold-compounding method to create their gins, infusing the botanicals in a labour-intensive bathtub method to impart the unique aroma and flavours found in their award-winning gins.
Production
After years of cold compounding gin at home, Gary and Andrea Watt, together with their daughter Erin, recently put the finishing touches on their modern purpose-built distillery next to their family home, which allows them to not only meet demand for their popular Orcadian 'Bathtub' gins but all also experiment and produce new flavours and styles including distilled spirits.
