What is Tanqueray Gin
A favorite gin all over the world, Tanqueray Gin consistently tops lists and wins awards. Created by Charles Tanqueray in 1830, Tanqueray was one of the first London Dry Gins on the market.
Charles’s goal was to create create the world’s best gin. Supposedly he tried over 300 recipes before settling on the one that made him famous.
Since then, Tanqueray has continued to be driven by Charles’ spirit of exploration and innovation and the Blackcurrant Royale is an example of this!

Charles was a visitor of Chamonix in his day and Blackcurrant Royale is inspired by his trips to that outdoorsy village. The choice of starting with juicy blackcurrants from France is inspired by those sojourns to Chamonix!
