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

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.
