Tanqueray

Tanqueray is a London dry gin; it is so called because of its distillation process as well as originating in Bloomsbury London. London dry gin is made by means of double distillation of grain. Botanicals are added during the second distillation. The recipe is a closely guarded trade secret although it is known to contain four botanicals (juniper coriander angelica root and liquorice). It all began when Charles Tanqueray launched his distillery in the 1830’s on Vine Street in Bloomsbury. It’s thought that the Tanqueray Gin recipe as we know it today first came about in 1838 – probably even earlier but older records can’t be found (presumably lost at some point in the company’s 180 year history!).
Aromas of citrus, spices and herbs. Simultaneous explosions of citrus and juniper, which appear after the silky notes of chamomile. Mouth is very complex, mainly due to its high alcohol content, which sets the flavours and aromas. The finish is long and shows notes of lemon and lime.
The perfect Gin for a martini.
