Barr Hill Tom Cat Reserve Barrel Aged Gin
Barr Hill Tom Cat Reserve is a barrel-aged gin from Caledonia Spirits in Vermont — distilled from corn and finished with raw honey, then matured in barrel for a burnished rose-gold hue and a modern-day adaptation of the sweetened Old Tom style.
Tom Cat takes the raw-honey philosophy of Barr Hill and ages it in oak, layering vanilla and soft spice over the honey-and-juniper core. The barrel rounds the spirit and deepens the color to rose gold, while the raw honey keeps a gentle sweetness that echoes the historic Old Tom style without being sugary.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Honey and juniper mingling with soft oak
- Palate: Slightly sweet up front, brisk piney mid-palate, fading to vanilla and a brush of peach
- Finish: Warm, rounded, lightly sweet with lingering oak
Specs
- Distillery: Caledonia Spirits (Barr Hill), Hardwick, Vermont
- Style: Barrel-Aged Old Tom-style Gin
- Base: Corn, finished with raw honey
- Size: 750ml

Frequently Asked Questions
What does Barr Hill Tom Cat taste like?
Honey and juniper with soft oak on the nose; slightly sweet up front, brisk and piney mid-palate, fading to vanilla and a brush of peach. Warm and rounded from the barrel.
How is it different from Barr Hill Gin?
Tom Cat is the barrel-aged version — the same corn base and raw honey, matured in oak for a rose-gold color, added vanilla and spice, and a rounder, Old Tom-style character.
How should I serve it?
Best in spirit-forward cocktails — a Martinez or Negroni — or neat to appreciate the barrel and honey. The oak can overwhelm lighter mixers.
