Tanqueray Flor de Sevilla Gin 1L

Orange-forward gin that still tastes like gin. This is Tanqueray’s love letter to Seville, built on their classic juniper base, then dialled up with bitter-sweet orange peel vibes that make every citrusy cocktail feel louder (in a good way).

• Nose: Fresh orange zest, marmalade, juniper, a hint of warm spice.
• Taste: Bright citrus peel up front, then herbaceous juniper and coriander, with a rounded, orangey sweetness that plays nice with tonic or bitter aperitifs.
• Finish: Drying citrus oils and juniper linger, with a gently spicy, clean snap.

If your usual gin and tonic feels a bit one-note, this fixes it fast. The orange character gives you instant flavour without needing a whole fruit bowl of garnishes, and the classic Tanqueray backbone keeps it crisp, not candy-like. It’s a go-to for cocktails where citrus matters, think G&T, Negroni twists, and anything that wants a hit of orange without losing that proper gin bite.

It also plays surprisingly well with Mediterranean mixers. Swap in a citrus-forward tonic, add a sprig of rosemary or a slice of orange, and you’ve got a highball that tastes like patio season. Want something more bitter? Pair it with a red aperitif and you’re in “one more round” territory.

What makes it worth shelf space is the balance. Plenty of orange, still unmistakably gin. You can pour it for someone who’s “not sure about gin” and they’ll get it, but it won’t bore the juniper diehards either.

Fun Fact: Tanqueray’s original recipe dates back to the 1830s, and the brand still leans hard on that London Dry DNA even when it goes off-script with flavours like Seville orange.
