Tanqueray No Ten – Britain’s Citrus Gin Crown
Get ready to uncork a bottle of British elegance with Tanqueray No. Ten, a 750ml burst of refined, citrus-charged brilliance crafted by Charles Tanqueray & Co under Diageo in London, where the foggy streets of Bloomsbury birthed a gin legacy in 1830 when Charles Tanqueray dared to defy his clerical roots. This isn’t just a drink—it’s a taste of mastery at 47.3% ABV, distilled in small batches in the legendary “Tiny Ten” copper still with whole fresh fruits—Florida grapefruits, Mexican limes, oranges—plus chamomile and classic botanicals like juniper and coriander, for a spirit as vibrant as a Nairobi matatu tearing through traffic. Launched in 2000 as the ultra-premium jewel of the Tanqueray lineup, it’s a gin that’s conquered the world with its sleek green bottle. Pour it out, and you’ll see a crystal-clear shimmer with a faint golden edge, teasing your senses with an aroma that’s a citrus orchard—vibrant grapefruit and lime zest burst forth, laced with floral chamomile, a subtle juniper hum, and a whisper of spice, like a dusk breeze over Karura Forest. Sip it, and it’s a flavor symphony: a smooth wave of juicy citrus and botanical finesse dances over your palate, balanced by a gentle juniper snap and a long, luxurious finish that’s as smooth as a Rift Valley sunset.

What’s the secret behind Tanqueray No. Ten? It’s the craft and the citrus. Quadruple-distilled with whole fruits—not just peels—steeped alongside angelica root, liquorice, and chamomile flowers, it’s a process so precise it’s earned double gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition and a rare Hall of Fame induction, per spirits accolades. Known for its “grapefruit-driven elegance with a floral soul” per tasting notes, this gin shines with a medium body that’s made it a Nairobi sensation via importers like Oaks & Corks, perfect neat or in a premium G&T. At 47.3% ABV, it’s a versatile titan—ideal chilled for a Westlands unwind, a braai companion at Uhuru Park where its zest complements smoky meats, or a rooftop cocktail where its punch cuts the heat. Serve it frosty at 4-6°C—with tonic and a pink grapefruit wedge, in a martini, or neat with a twist—and pair it with spicy nyama choma, where the citrus cools the fire, grilled fish that loves its freshness, or dark chocolate that vibes with its depth. The 750ml bottle, with its iconic Tanqueray seal, is a British must—perfect for gifting to a gin aficionado, stashing for a spontaneous toast, or stocking your bar for those moments when you crave a taste of London without leaving Nairobi. Tanqueray No. Ten isn’t just a gin—it’s a vibe, a sip of Britain’s spirited soul bottled up for Kenya’s flavor-craving crowd who live for drinks that dazzle with sophistication. Enjoy it responsibly—this citrus crown’s got a kick that sneaks up smooth.
