\nThe gin takes its name from Tanqueray\u2019s still number 10, known as the \u2018Tiny Ten\u2019 still, in which its \u2018citrus heart\u2019 is distilled. Tiny Ten\u2019s spirit is used in the final distillation, which is moved to the brand\u2019s larger \u2018Old Tom\u2019 still.<\/strong><\/p>\n
The updated bottle design nods to the Tiny Ten still through a copper cap with citrus zester relief. The bottle shape preserves a \u201ccitrus press shaped glass structure\u201d at its base to reflect the fruit used in making the spirit. With the ten-faceted profile and red wax seal, the brand aims to forefront the premium, artisanal nature of the spirit.<\/p>\n
Master distiller Terry Fraser commented: \u201cTanqueray No. TEN has always pioneered bringing gin to new levels, and this stunning new bottle is a testament to our craft. Using whole citrus fruits to capture the \u2018citrus heart\u2019 in our historic Tiny Ten still sets us apart from other gin distillations, making this the perfect element for the zenith of cocktail making excellence. The gin\u2019s unique balance and refreshing taste are key to creating balanced drinks. It’s a delight to see how it’s used in the best drinks in the world.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n The new-look Tanqueray No. TEN will feature in a series of residencies held at cocktail bars around the world. The first residency will be held in London\u2019s The Connaught Bar. In celebration of the residency, the bar\u2019s director of mixology Ago Perrone has collaborated with actor Stanley Tucci to create a bespoke cocktail. The resultant \u2018TENacious\u2019 cocktail takes inspiration from the gin\u2019s botanicals, as well as the flavours of the Negroni and Martini.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Stanley_Tucci_celebrates_the_new_Tanqueray.jpg\")
