Tanqueray Rangpur Gin

Filed under: Spirits

We don't hear as much about new gins as we do the other white spirits so news of any innovation in this old standard is always welcome. Tanqueray has come out with a new version of their classic gin. Tanqueray Rangpur is distilled with Rangpur limes for a more subtle gin taste with a hint of lime. A review over on Liquor Snob reports that the gin is very smooth and excellent in martinis. The 750 ml will retail for $21.99 and it should be making its way to major markets soon.

Hendrick's Gin

Filed under: Spirits

Hold the lime, make it a cucumber!  A cucumber is the best choice of fruit for your Hendrick’s gin and tonic.  The cucumber brings out the fortifying combination of infused botanicals. In this old apothecary shaped bottle you will find a gin infused with Bulgarian Rose, coriander, and cucumbers. Unlike most English made gins, Hendrick's is small batch distilled in Ayrshire, Scotland. The lowland Scottish water provides the perfect medium for the grain spirit and the unusual array of botanicals.
I can unhesitatingly say this is absolutely the best gin I have ever had. Feathery, crisp, and a clear essence of cucumber.    With it I have made an absolutely prestigious gin martini and gin and tonic.
