A stunning bouquet. I always sniff a new gin before drinking, and I use Tanqueray 10 as my benchmark. So smooth as it is touches the palette. Chabo, Elena (24 February 2021). "Tanqueray launches 0.0% alcohol version of its iconic gin". Good Housekeeping . Retrieved 7 October 2022. A lot has been said about Tanqueray No. TEN gin since it took the drinks market by storm in 2000. Some believe it’s named after the number of botanicals in its secret recipe. Others contend that it’s an ode to the metric system, or a perfect rating (this option is persuasive). The “ten,” however, is actually owed to the mighty little piece of machinery that produced the first batch of this iconic gin.
It’s in the midpalate where the more rooty elements in the gin emerge with angelica root and licorice, and we really get a sense of the level of alcohol. It’s really the midpalate of Tanqueray London Dry Gin which makes it one of the best gins you can use in a gin and tonic. The structure that’s created between the spice and the spirit is unparalleled in the gin space, with flavor that is nothing short of perfection. Like the nose, the midpalate of Tanqueray has each and every botanical accounted for. Surprisingly, there’s also a sense of underlining sweetness in the midpalate. It’s subtle, but it’s there, and it emanates not only from the base grain spirit, but also from the licorice root. Compliment Tanqueray No. TEN and tonic with a pink grapefruit wedge to enhance its bright and complex citrus flavour. Tanqueray No. TEN is the only gin to be inducted to the San Francisco World Spirits Competition Hall of Fame Palate: A mix of incredibly clean, spicy juniper, hints of Earl Grey tea and cardamom. Very citrus-rich.Really have come around to this gin, ultimately deciding it makes the absolute best Last Word; works superbly when paired with either Luxardo or Maraska maraschino (for funky or bright notes, respectively). the extra ABV really helps it hold its own against the Chartreuse, which is no small feat. Overall just a superb gin. Wow. Phenomenal. Definitely the best gin I have ever tasted. Beautiful balance of juniper and citrus, and amazingly smooth.
Past offerings from Tanqueray also include both orange and lemon gins, produced from 1937 until 1957, when both were phased out. [11] Think of this gin as a tip of the hat to Charles Tanqueray, founder of the nearly two-century-old brand. It honors the man’s perfectionism, which is written all over his recipes and resulting work. Tanqueray didn’t just make spirits worth drinking, he made spirits worth savoring. TEN is one the late founder would be most proud of. I waited a long time to try this gin since i do not like the original Tanqueray which has been in production nearly 200 years.

It produces a spirit known as the citrus heart which gives Tanqueray No. TEN its bright, elegant citrus taste It is one of Diageo's sixteen "strategic brands" earmarked for prioritisation in promotion and distribution worldwide. [1] History [ edit ]
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. This gin may not have been possible in 1830 when Charles Tanqueray first developed the recipe for his gin. Fresh citrus, especially in the reliable quantities to make a gin like this would have either been quite expensive or just simply not available in 19th century London on a predictable basis.

No 10 is now one of my two favorite gins with Citadelle Jardin dete’ just edging it out as the best (tried so far) for my taste buds. 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:Nose: Tanqueray No. 10 Gin is juniper led. It has bright lime zest with hints red grapefruit, just above a clean licorice and angelica note. Tanqueray Rangpur Gin was introduced in Maryland, Delaware, and Washington, D.C. in the summer of 2006. It has a strong citrus flavor, the result of rangpur limes, ginger, and bay leaves added during the final distillation process. It is produced at 82.6 proof (41.3% abv) and is now available throughout the United States and Canada. It is named after city of Rangpur from where the names of the citrus also came. 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.
