Tranquebar Colonial Gin - Review & Tasting Notes
Tranquebar Colonial Gin
Tranquebar Colonial Gin is based on the 17th century recipe created by Jan de Willum, founder of the Danish East India Company, who distilled his genever-style gin in Amsterdam. With new spices and ingredients arriving in Denmark from the Danish trading post at Tranquebar in India, Jan de Willum incorporated these into his recipe, including cinnamon, cardamom and nutmeg. In homage to this, the recipe has now been recreated by Royal Dirkzwager Distillery in the Netherlands and it is bottled in Denmark. |
The Gin Guide Review - Tranquebar Colonial Gin
Tranquebar Colonial Gin combines characteristics of a traditional genever with Indian spices, all in a style that will appeal to genever and gin drinkers alike. Alongside juniper, it is warming and deeply spiced with cardamon, nutmeg, coriander seeds and cinnamon, balanced with citrus peels. Tranquebar Colonial Gin is characterful and delivers a real sense of history. - Paul Jackson, 2019 |
