Tanqueray Gin was initially distilled in 1830 by Charles Tanqueray, who was descended from three generations of clergy from the village of Tingrith in Bedfordshire. At 20 he chose not to follow the family calling and established a distillery in the Bloomsbury district of London instead. During World War II the distillery was almost completely destroyed. After the great air raid of 1941 only one of the stills, known as "Old Tom," survived and it is still in use today at the distillery in Cameronbridge, Scotland. The gin is primarily produced in Scotland and exported to its major market, the U.S.; it is a London Dry Gin, so called because of the distillation process, not the origin of the product. VEGETARIAN and VEGAN.
