The Captain Sir Tom London Dry Gin has been unveiled by the Otterbeck Distillery as a new offering that aims to pay homage to the namesake veteran and also support his fundraising efforts.
The gin will see proceeds of every bottle sold going to The Captain Tom Foundation and is reported to feature aromatics inspired by the Yorkshire childhood garden of the former British Army officer Captain Sir Tom. This includes notes of rosemary and thyme, and is likely to be a must-have for cocktail enthusiasts looking to support a good cause as they mix up their favourite cocktails.
Co-Founder of Otterbeck Distillery Nicola Lampkin spoke on the new Captain Sir Tom London Dry Gin saying, "It is an amazing privilege to be working with Captain Sir Tom and his foundation which supports some incredible charities; we’re delighted to be able to do our bit to help support such worthwhile causes. Captain Sir Tom has captured the imagination of the world and we’re proud to have distilled a very special gin with a very special man.”
