Multi-award winning Tanqueray, often called the world’s best gin, has been made with the same high quality recipe for over 200 years and is recognised by bartenders and experts across the globe as the ultimate in gin.
When making gin, the devil’s in the details. Producers use varying amounts of juniper, angelica, orange peel, lemon or lime peel, cardamom, etc. The methods of adding the aromatics vary too. Tanqueray owes its unique flavour not only to a very complex combination of the world’s finest botanicals (fruits and spices are matured for up to 18 months) but it’s also the only gin to be produced using a ‘one shot’ distillation method which, although laborious and expensive, ensures that the true flavours of the added plants are released in their purest form. Tanqueray is then quadruple distilled to remove all impurities resulting in an exceptionally smooth, delicious tasting gin.
During the tasting we’ll be serving a small selection of Tanqueray and Tanqueray No TEN cocktails specially created for the evening by Boisdale of Belgravia’s head barman Jose Pereira.
