About this deal

Hayes, Annie (11 July 2017). "Tanqueray outperforms Beefeater for first time in 2016". The Sprits Business . Retrieved 25 September 2020. Tanqueray London Dry Gin is one of the benchmark spirits for the London Dry category, and tasting it side by side with the Tanqueray Malacca, the strong differences in style become amazingly clear. Tanqueray London Dry is an unapologetic celebration of juniper – strong, assertive and astringent – while Tanquery Malacca is more an expression of botanical balance: soft, citrusy and evenly spiced. Excerpt: The (relatively) low proof and sweetness makes this gin soft and plush. Would be a great entry to the category for those who think they don't like gin.

Tanqueray London Dry Gin is the original product that was launched in 1830; its key botanicals are juniper, coriander, angelica root and liquorice. It is variously sold as: Tanqueray is a London dry gin, reflecting its distillation process and origin in Bloomsbury, London. London dry gin is made by double distilling grain, with select botanicals added during the second distillation. While the Tanqueray recipe is a closely guarded trade secret, it is known to contain four botanicals: juniper, coriander, angelica root and liquorice, all common botanicals in gin productions overall. Keep on reading to know more about these gin types and discover why they’re all the rave among drinkers. Tanqueray London Dry GinThe realm of flavored gins is ever-evolving, and Tanqueray ensures that its brand does not fall behind. To do this, they often release different types of Tanqueray gin in the market. Each variety is crafted with revolutionary and distinct botanical blends without compromising the stellar quality of the fantastic boozy drink. To keep up with the New Western Style Gin, Tanqueray No.10 was released in 2000. And though this drink is based on a recipe from the 1830s, it still caught the attention of the new generation of drinkers. Tanqueray Malacca Gin was introduced in 1997 as a "wetter" alternative to the London Dry, with more sweetness and a stronger fruit palate (most notably grapefruit). Discontinued in 2001, Diageo announced on 12 December 2012 (12/12/12) [8] [ unreliable source?] that a 16,000-case limited edition of Tanqueray Malacca would be relaunched in the US, Great Britain, Canada and Western Europe for February 2013. [9] Martini: I think some of the spirits’ most interesting notes come out when warm. So a bit more citrus forward, zesty and a bit acidic. Perhaps a tad too citrusy. I didn’t find the Vermouth to really counter it enough. An okay drink, not among my favorites. Past offerings from Tanqueray also include both orange and lemon gins, produced from 1937 until 1957, when both were phased out. [11]

We’re really impressed by the way this flavourful gin blends so perfectly with premium tonic water. If you enjoy a good gin and tonic, this combination will certainly exceed your expectations. First, let us start at the beginning with Charles Tanqueray. He’s the gent who created the premium spirits that bear his name. After extensive trials, he discovered a perfectly balanced recipe that combined a rich, full flavour with a bold, invigorating taste. In 2009, in his groundbreaking essay on New Western Style Gin Defined, Ryan Magarian, Co-Creator of Aviation Gin, also gave a nod to Tanqueray Malacca: Tanqueray is a brand of gin produced by Diageo plc. It originated in London. While it does not command a sizable market share in its native market, its largest market is the United States. Chabo, Elena (24 February 2021).

It’s the only thing that could make Idris Elba look awkward.

Tanqueray No. Ten Gin (47.3%) was introduced in 2000 and is targeted at the martini market. [7] It is distilled four times with whole fresh grapefruit, orange, lime and chamomile flowers This variety features the botanical blend of the original gin, with chamomile flowers and fresh citrus fruits such as grapefruit, lime, and orange added to the mystifying recipe. This fruity spirit is the perfect drink for juniper-averse gin drinkers. When gin, and not equine toiletries, won out in Tanqueray’s heart, he dedicated himself wholly to improving what passed for gin at the time, taking on industry leaders Felix Booth and Alexander Gordon (he’d go on to partner with the latter). While developing what would become his flagship recipe, Tanqueray stumbled upon his preferred method for distilling botanicals into a small quantity of neutral grain spirit before distilling the larger batch for the final time. It was one of the first innovations in botanical infusion, central to the whole “how-is-this-delicious-gin-not-vodka?” question. Tanqueray Rangpur only has a 41.3 percent ABV, a little lower compared to the other gin types. Its complex flavor profile blends well with fantastic gin martinis such as in this bootlegger martini drink . Tanqueray Malacca Gin They’re different beasts in the bottle, sure, but before botanicals come into play, vodka and gin can be (and often are) close to the same stuff. In the case of Tanqueray gin and Smirnoff vodka, they’re exactly the same stuff: Smirnoff and the base neutral spirit for Tanqueray are distilled at a facility called Cameron Bridge in Scotland before going off to become their respective final products, which proves — if nothing else — the surprising economic advantage of adding juniper to stuff before selling it.

This gin is crafted with juniper, peppercorn, rose, cloves, licorice, and other notable botanicals. There’s only a tad bit of juniper to symphonize with the other botanicals, though. Malacca is also known to be a bit sweeter compared to other Tanqueray varieties. Tanqueray and Tanqueray 10 are the two Tanqueray products you’re most likely to see or have seen, drink or have drunk (or are drinking right now, nice). They both ring in at a solid 47.3 percent ABV, but Tanqueray has that aforementioned juniper assertiveness, whereas Tanqueray 10 was produced as a kind of concession to and/or celebration of the emerging craft gin market — a market reaching out to more consumers, including those less in love with gin’s signature juniper note. The result is a mix of eight botanicals (not 10, because why not?) that is less juniper-forward and overlaid with not just earthy spice but brighter, fragrant citrus notes. According to former Tanqueray master distiller Tom Nichol, Charles Tanqueray “was a genius.” More accurately, “I think he was a genius who told everyone he was a genius,” Nichol says. We don’t know if Tanqueray was both annoying and super smart, but we do know he dressed like Santa Claus on a Tinder date and carried around a notebook filled with ideas. Among the more prominent: recipes for animal medicines and a supposedly “improved” horseshoe polish, since there’s nothing worse than bad horseshoe polish. We’re glad he went with gin.

Its founder defied God. Sort of.

In accordance with a report by The Spirits Business, Tanqueray was the highest selling gin in the world for 2016, with nearly three million nine-litre cases sold. [5] Products [ edit ] Tanqueray London Dry, Rangpur, and No. Ten Gin lovers have been enjoying this flavored spirit since 2007. Bay leaf, ginger, juniper, and other botanicals are carefully mixed to create this winning flavor. We’re always on the lookout for new and interesting taste sensations. Thankfully someone recommended TANQUERAY MALACCA recently. It’s perfect for an afternoon social or an evening get-together. Without a doubt, it is sure to be a real crowd-pleaser. TANQUERAY MALACCA The most striking feature from this gin, however, is the refreshing taste brought by Rangpur limes. While they are called limes, the unique citrus fruit which is native to India is more similar to mandarin oranges. A cross between mandarin orange and citron, Rangpur limes are also juicier. This gin is definitely a must-try, especially if you have a love-hate relationship with juniper-heavy spirits.
