Pink Grapefruit Old Tom Gin
A classic sweet Old Tom with a zesty finish.
Our Pink Grapefruit Old Tom gin derives from our popular ‘Design a Rock Rose Gin Label’ competition of 2016, which was released as the wonderful citrus-based Artists’ Edition. We decided to bring it back as a fresher version for 2019 using organic pink grapefruit peel, all lovingly peeled by our distillery team! These are added to our botanical basket and vapour infused along with all our traditional gin botanicals. It is then lightly sweetened with muscovado sugar.
£39.50
Tasting Notes
Nose
Bright and zesty with fresh grapefruit coming through.
Palate
Fresh and citrusy but very well balanced with the juniper and lovely notes of vanilla appearing.
Finish
Lasting sweetness with a depth of grapefruit tang.
Botanical Symphony
Juniper Berries
Juniper is the predominant botanical – otherwise it just wouldn’t be gin! We select our juniper from two different countries. Both junipers are subjected to a vapour infusion process and the Bulgarian juniper gives lemon sherbert notes, whilst the Italian juniper gives a real warmth and depth to the flavour of the gin.
Muscovado Sugar
Muscovado sugar is an unrefined cane sugar with a deep molasses flavour. We use it in small quantities to sweeten our Pink Grapefruit Old Tom, and also to enhance the citrus elements whilst adding depth of flavour.
Fresh Pink Grapefruit Peel
A hybrid fruit created in 18th century Barbados once alluringly called the ‘forbidden fruit’. Our distillery team happily peel our pink grapefruits ready for distillation, knowing that they can then take the fruit home to enjoy! Only the peel is used in the distillation to provide beautiful, zesty and fresh citrus flavours.
The Perfect Serve
- Our Old Tom is best served in one of our lovely Rock Rose glasses with a light tonic and fresh pink grapefruit peel.

I bought this as a gift but I own a bottle myself. Lovely refreshing taste. I like it best with plain Fever Tree Refreshingly Light tonic and ice. Any flavoured tonics would interfere with the taste of the Gin. One of my favourites.

I am a fan of the classic Rock Rose and had recently ordered the Smoked Orange which is great in cocktails. So, I have just bought an Old Tom for the first time having read about it. It is a really fresh, clean invigorating flavour and it comes through well with Fever-tree Light Mediterranean Tonic. Often flavours are lost when tonic is added but this is all there. I cut a ruby grapefruit into wedges, store them in freezer them then add one to my drink …. perfect

I love the mix of the sharp grapefruit and the soft sugar in this gin. Makes a lovely change from London Dry and one that I gladly return to. A light tonic lets you enjoy the flavours in a longer drink but I quite like it on its own with some crushed ice and a slice of grapefruit peel. Tried it with some lemon basil and it was rather lovely but that might just be my taste buds . Whatever you like it with, it is a gin you want in your selection.

This is my favourite flavour so far and I was delighted to find it was available in a refill pouch.
I hate the idea of wasting the original lovely bottle.
I am wondering what our posties down here in Devon will make of finding an empty pouch in the post box, I hope it finds its way back to you!

What a lovely fresh gin. Enjoyed year round, it’s just perfect, with a hint of flavour rather than ending up like the strongly flavoured gins which line the supermarket shelves. I got this as a refill, what a fantastic scheme that is.

I LOVE this gin. It is perfect in the late afternoon in our dry, hot summers in central Washington state, USA. If only someone could bring me another bottle! Light, refreshing, tangy and sweet. The Perfect Serve is aptly named.
