Hernö Old Tom Gin is made with the same botanicals as the standard, but with extra meadowsweet to impart extra sweetness. This is then heightened with the addition of touches of honey and sugar before bottling.
Place basil leaves and lemon juice in a shaker, gently muddle and top of with the rest of the ingredients. Shake vigorously and double strain into an ice-filled glass. Garnish with a couple of basil leaves.
We've been fans of their Syrah and Chardonnay for some time and this is another go-to product we'll add to the list.
Light in colour, but plenty of depth and flavour and pleasingly dry.
Highly recommended.
I haven’t tried every bottle in this selection yet, however, so far they are all very tasty. I’m a Chardonnay lover, always on the look out for a dryish not sweet wine and these are just right for me. An excellent mixed case and we’ll priced.
This was a very nice surprise in Wine Direct’s very welcome Plenty Under $20 category. Beautifully fruity, rich and smooth. Often the Plenty Under $20 range is a little light for the depth I like but I will definitely be reordering this one.
A great summer wine… elegant and a fine balance of lighter fruit and delicate acidity with a nice dry finish. Very drinkable with or without food. A nice change from our usual unoaked French Chardonnay
