GVim only lists fonts which describe themselves as being monospaced.

I suspect you are using an older version of Hermit which failed to do this correctly. The changelog for 2.0 mentions:

Marked as monospaced (isFixedPitch).

Download version 2.0 directly from its creator's website, to ensure you have the latest version.
