Tanqueray Malacca Gin 40% 100cl

Product Information

Tanqueray is a London dry gin, reflecting its distillation process and origin in Bloomsbury, London. London dry gin is made by double distilling grain, with select botanicals added during the second distillation.

Medium mouth feel, no real heat. Lots of sweet cream, peaches, cucumber, white pepper. Very floral.

The loss of Old Tom Gin is irreparable, although if you can get your hands on a bottle of the discontinued Tanqueray Malacca, you’ll come pretty close. Tanqueray London Dry Gin is one of the benchmark spirits for the London Dry category, and tasting it side by side with the Tanqueray Malacca, the strong differences in style become amazingly clear. Tanqueray London Dry is an unapologetic celebration of juniper – strong, assertive and astringent – while Tanquery Malacca is more an expression of botanical balance: soft, citrusy and evenly spiced. This gin is crafted with juniper, peppercorn, rose, cloves, licorice, and other notable botanicals. There’s only a tad bit of juniper to symphonize with the other botanicals, though. Malacca is also known to be a bit sweeter compared to other Tanqueray varieties.In accordance with a report by The Spirits Business, Tanqueray was the highest selling gin in the world for 2016, with nearly three million nine-litre cases sold.

They’re different beasts in the bottle, sure, but before botanicals come into play, vodka and gin can be (and often are) close to the same stuff. In the case of Tanqueray gin and Smirnoff vodka, they’re exactly the same stuff: Smirnoff and the base neutral spirit for Tanqueray are distilled at a facility called Cameron Bridge in Scotland before going off to become their respective final products, which proves — if nothing else — the surprising economic advantage of adding juniper to stuff before selling it.
