TANQUERAY NO 10 1L

Tanqueray No. Ten Gin 750ml was named “Ten” because it was developed on the experimental still named “Tiny Ten.” Tanqueray No. 10 gin features only eight botanicals (not ten!). It adds four new ones to the Tanqueray formula. Juniper, coriander, licorice, and angelica root remain. It adds chamomile flowers and three kinds of fresh, whole citrus. This gin may not have been possible in 1830 when Charles Tanqueray first developed the recipe for his Tanqueray Nº Ten 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. The whole citrus is distilled separately from the other botanicals. The two distillates are blended, diluted, and bottled.
