Tanglin Singapore Gin
750ml & 84 Proof
What is Tanglin Singapore Gin?
Tanglin Singapore Gin captures the essence of the Lion City with its unique blend of orchid flowers, vanilla beans, and amchur (dried green mango powder). Interestingly, this gin pays homage to Singapore's history as the world's largest exporter of orchids in the 1950s, incorporating the national flower, the Vanda Miss Joaquim orchid, into its botanical mix.
Why do we love Tanglin Singapore Gin?
Tanglin Singapore Gin stands out for its unique blend of Asian botanicals, including orchid flowers – Singapore's national flower – and the vanilla-like Dendrobium nobile orchids. This gin also incorporates distinctively Singaporean ingredients such as Indian amchur (dried green mango powder) and Java pepper, creating a flavor profile that's both exotic and reminiscent of the island nation's diverse culinary heritage.
How do you drink Tanglin Singapore Gin?
Tanglin Singapore Gin shines in classic gin-forward cocktails, allowing its unique botanical blend to take center stage, but it's equally delightful served simply with tonic and a slice of grapefruit. Its refreshing profile makes it perfect for sipping on balmy evenings, while its complexity pairs beautifully with spicy Southeast Asian cuisine or light seafood dishes.
Nose: Juniper and citrus notes lead, followed by a subtle spiciness from ginger and cinnamon. Fresh orchid and vanilla scents add a gentle floral sweetness. A hint of chrysanthemum tea brings a unique herbal touch.
Palate: Smooth and well-balanced. Crisp juniper and citrus flavors mingle with warm spices. The orchid and vanilla notes become more pronounced, creating a silky mouthfeel. A slight earthiness from the chrysanthemum tea adds depth and complexity.
Finish: Long and warming. The spices linger, accompanied by a subtle sweetness from the vanilla and floral notes. A gentle pine-like quality from the juniper persists, while the chrysanthemum tea leaves a pleasant, slightly dry aftertaste.
Tanglin Singapore Gin is crafted using a unique blend of botanicals including orchid flowers, the national flower of Singapore, along with more traditional gin ingredients like juniper and coriander. The gin is distilled in small batches using a hybrid copper pot still, which allows for precise control over the extraction of flavors and aromas from each botanical, resulting in a distinctly Singaporean spirit with a smooth, floral character.
