Tanqueray Rangpur. I think it’s a great summer gin. The limey edge that adds up with the ginger/botanical richness that this gin has is just great for G&T. It’s definitely on the sweet side, not unlike the Ten, but I find the “balance” here to be a tad better.
I have not tried this gin anywhere else than in G&T. The limey side may not do well for any other cocktail (Martini comes to mind) but since I love to have the lime feel, and that it does so well for me in G&T, I have no intention to use it for anything else.
Strangely enough, it’s hard to find in Europe, really. I managed to get two bottles of this, US import that did not actually make it there
… is it a very popular drink over the pond?
Cheers
