Nice concept, average execution
The blackcurrant flavour at 41.3% is pleasant enough but feels a bit muted compared to what I expected from the Royale branding. It is fine but I wanted more intensity from those French blackcurrants.
Luxurious fruit gin
The Royale name suits this perfectly. Rich French blackcurrant paired with Tanqueray's classic London Dry base at 41.3% creates something genuinely luxurious. Beautiful over ice with a premium tonic.
Classy addition to Tanqueray
Tanqueray have expanded their range nicely with this blackcurrant expression. At 41.3% it has good strength and the fruit integrates well with the juniper base. A step above most supermarket fruit gins.
