Tanqueray Gin No. Ten (1.75L) Côte-Rôtie Claude Thibaut and Manuel JanissonMore citrus forward than the standard Tanqeray Dry bottling, this is gin and tonic perfection. The classic aroma features juniper and touches of mint, anise and coriander. The same is echoed on the palate, though its also bursting with grapefruit and lemon peel, finishing soft and herbaceous but perked up with a white peppercorn spark. The No. Ten also has a new art deco inspired bottle, making it a particularly gift worthy choice for summer party
