Tanqueray London Dry Gin
This pack contains: 12 x Tanqueray London Dry Gin (Mini) 5cl
Since 2016 Tanqueray has been the bestselling gin in the world, and for good reason! It has great provenance, being first distilled in 1830 by Charles Tanqueray & co in the Bloomsbury area of London. This same recipe is still used and celebrated the world over to this day.
Whilst initially produced in London, it is now made in Scotland and the brand is owned by Diageo plc.
A true London Dry gin (which refers to the distillation process), it is double distilled using only grain spirit and has a secret blend of botanicals added during the second distillation process. Not all of these are known (otherwise it wouldn't be much of a secret...), but it does contain four of the "common" gin botanicals, namely: Juniper (a 'must have' in gin!), Coriander, Angelica Root and Liquorice. All of these are clear and crisp in the taste, but none are too overpowering.
This makes it a truly classic gin, but with a definite edge which has ensured it keeps its top selling place in the world! On the nose this is truly aromatic, and brings notes of cedar, piney juniper and a hint of citrus zest.
On the palate the juniper is truly front and centre and is joined with delicious refreshing orange and lemon peel, a touch of aniseed and a hint of spice. It finishes with an excellent creamy mouthfeel, thick with juniper.

Perfect Serve
This is one of those drinks which is best enjoyed classic, in a deliciously refreshing gin and tonic. We think this works really well with Fentimans Tonic Water. For a dash of extra zest, it also works exceptionally well with their Valencian Orange tonic.
Take a large glass (ideally a copa / balloon glass) and fill with ice. Pour in 50ml of Tanqueray, and gently pour over 150 - 200ml of your chosen tonic water. Add a wedge of lime (if with a classic tonic), or orange if with the valencian orange.
This is also a really good addition to your drinks collection, as it works equally well in the mix - such as in a Martini or Negroni Cocktail.
