Tanqueray London Dry Gin weighs in at 41.3% ABV making it an ideal strength for cocktails. It boasts a phenomenally fruity, spicy palate with big zesty, citrusy top notes, using the same Tanqueray recipe since 1830 of Tuscan juniper, angelica, and coriander.
Aromatic. Cedar, juniper oil, a little citrus zest.
Huge juniper, spicy notes of orange and lemon peel, a little aniseed.
Long finish, very full and thick with juniper.
It's unbelievable to think this Gin was made in 1830 and its still one of the best in the world with all the new ones that have popped up. It has a distinctly juniper forward aroma that delivers in flavour and also has a lovely peppery lemony-ness. The best London Dry out there and for a decent price! Makes an amazing Gin and Tonic and perfect Gin for mixing. Truly a league of its own.
True to say this gin is nothing amazing but, it has a very nice balanced, sweet side flavour to it, the strength provides some push, and it's trump card I've found is that I've mixed it with all manor of tonic flavours and fruits and it always delivers something different {see 'A good cocktail bar staple' review}. I'ts versatility alone should keep it in most peoples gin selection.
Unlike myself this gin is bold and uncomplicated. A go-to staple.
A decent tasty gin, great for cocktails. I don’t often buy this one as it’s not my favourite dry gin however is a good bar staple.
Bold - fruity - linear - no bitter after taste. No added gimmick ingredients. classic taste
