Tanqueray Malacca takes its name from the historic spice-trading port of Malacca and builds on Tanqueray’s classic juniper base with an exotic, Eastern-leaning botanical bill. Rose, black pepper, clove, nutmeg, and cinnamon give it a warmer, spicier, and sweeter profile than a standard London Dry, alongside a lift of pink grapefruit. Bottled at 40% ABV, it suits drinkers who want a gin built for sipping neat or in a simple mixed serve rather than a sharp, juniper-forward G&T.
CHARACTER
Juniper: Piney backbone under the citrus and spice
Grapefruit: Pink grapefruit zest opens the nose
Rose: Floral sweetness alongside the citrus
Black Pepper: Rich, peppery heat on the palate
Clove: A whisper of clove on the nose, returning on the finish
Nutmeg: Warm spice through the nose and into the long finish
Cinnamon: Warms the palate alongside the black pepper
TASTING NOTES
NOSE- Pink grapefruit zest and floral rose over piney juniper, with a whisper of clove and nutmeg spice.
PALATE- Rich and spiced, black pepper and cinnamon warming the citrus and juniper base.
FINISH- Long and complex, with clove, nutmeg, and cracked peppercorn spice lingering.
