Created by Charles Tanqueray in 1830, Tanqueray London Dry Gin is still made according to the same classic recipe.
Tanqueray London Dry Gin is quadruple-distilled with a perfect balance of the classic gin botanicals: refreshing juniper, peppery coriander, aromatic angelica, and sweet liquorice.
It is best served with tonic, plenty of ice and a slice of lime, but can be used as a base for various cocktails.
Tanqueray London Dry Gin has won many awards, including praise from the World's Best Bars (Drinks International Brands Report 2020). It is noted as the best-selling gin, the second most popular gin, and the second most favourite spirit among bartenders.
The iconic shape of the Tanqueray bottle is inspired by the cocktail shaker, which became a symbol of the cocktail movement during Prohibition in the "roaring 1920s". The pineapple, which was considered so exotic that it became a symbol of hospitality in England in the 1830s, is part of the Tanqueray family crest and adorns every bottle produced by the Tanqueray Distilling Company.
