LIBRARIAN'S VERDICT

“

The absolute benchmark for juniper-forward spirits. It is bold, loud, and incredibly consistent—a gin that demands to be noticed in any cocktail.

The Library Note

Created by Charles Tanqueray in 1830, the recipe remains a secret known to only a handful of people. Its iconic bottle design is a nod to a three-piece cocktail shaker, symbolizing its status as the definitive mixing spirit.

Sommelier's Perspective

THE NOSE

Massive juniper hit with a backing of peppery spice and citrus.

THE PALATE

Clean and powerful. A core of resinous juniper balanced by a subtle earthy sweetness and a sharp, dry finish.

THE FINISH

Long, warming, and intensely aromatic.

Sensory Profile

THE PERFECT SERVE

The 'Ultimate Martini': 2.5 oz Tanqueray, 0.5 oz Dolin Dry Vermouth. Stir with large ice cubes until painfully cold. Strain into a frozen Nick & Nora glass. Garnish with a large, oil-rich Mediterranean olive. The gin's backbone ensures it never gets lost.
