The Otterbeck Distillery has teamed up with Captain Sir Tom Moore to create a London dry gin which will raise funds for The Captain Tom Foundation! Moore met the Otterbeck Distillery co-owner Dougie Lampkin during the making of a TV show about Moore, and the two shared an affection for the Yorkshire Dales and vintage motorbikes. While checking out Lampkin's motorbikes, Moore also got a chance to see the distillery, and joked that he'd like to have his own gin one day - and that day has arrived! Otterbeck have told us they are making a donation to The Captain Tom Foundation for every bottle sold, which supports charities like The Royal British Legion and Mind.
Softly herbaceous with thyme, rosemary and juniper, plus a splash of lemon zest coming through clearly.
Tastes a bit "eggy".
I recently got absolutely trousered on this stuff and ended up marching round my garden bellowing Russ Abbott's hit 'Atmosphere' at the top of my lungs in tribute to the good Captain. Highly recommended.
Tastes like baked beans (Branston's).
This century’s greatest grift distilled in a bottle of gin
Smooth, delicious and mixes with any type of tonic. A worthy tribute to a great man! Salute Sir Captain Tom Moore! We will remember your deeds with great valour! Cheers!
