Poor Toms is one of the pioneers of the new wave of Australian distilling. The team’s mission is to bring real pleasure to people’s lives with audacious and honest spirits, especially gin.
Poor Tom is an archetypal philosopher, fool, madman, dissembler. Straight out of Bedlam (a medieval psychiatric hospital), he wanders the countryside conversing in riddles. In Shakespeare’s King Lear, Edgar assumes the identity of Poor Tom, transforming from a landowning noble into a naked outcast.
We drink gin to transcend reality, to dissolve the adornments of our identities and become somebody else: to become Poor Tom. This is the namesake and ethos behind the venue.
Located in a warehouse space the Inner West suburb of Marrickville, Poor Toms Gin Hall is open Thursday to Sunday. Come for a cocktail at the bar or pick up a creation to enjoy at home.
