Light citrus with hints of pink and white grapefruit, also some richer juniper notes
Palate:
Very clean citrus notes mixed with juniper and peppery tones, slight hint of coriander

Citrus notes with a clean, fresh finish

Serving Recommendation

Tanqueray No.10 works brilliantly in a Tom Collins but also works well when served simply with a wedge of grapefruit or most citrus based fruits.

• 25-50ml Tanqueray No.10 in a highball glass
• 25-50ml Lemon or Grapefruit juice
• Add soda and garnish with Lemon or Grapefruit
• Serve over glass of ice

Overall
