About this bottle

Tom's Town Botanical Gin is produced in Kansas City, utilizing both vapor infusion and maceration methods to integrate its 14 botanicals. These botanicals include Kaffir lime, lemongrass, cubeb pepper, long pepper, allspice, and clove. Tom's Town Distillery is named in honor of Tom Pendergast, a political figure who held significant influence in Kansas City during the Prohibition era, which is reflected in the art deco design of the bottles. The gin was formerly known as McElroy's Corruption Gin, with updated branding and name in 2018.

This gin is immense! Its presence lingers. Abundant flavor that holds its own in any mixed drink.

Taylor Carvalho 4.0

Complex with floral and herbal notes, a smooth spicy warmth, and a ginger finish.

I thoroughly enjoy this. Ideal for a gin and tonic on a spring evening.

A worthwhile stop at their KC tasting room. A lovely place and a fine gin.

Mitchel Anglin 2.8

I'm not typically a gin drinker; it has a very prominent floral aroma.
