Tanqueray Sevilla Orange Flavored Gin
Tanqueray Sevilla Orange Flavored Gin is an 82.6-proof (41.3% ABV) orange gin built on the classic four-botanical Tanqueray London Dry — juniper, coriander, angelica, and liquorice — layered with bittersweet Seville oranges and orange blossom from a recipe Charles Tanqueray sketched in Spain in the 1860s. First released in 2018, it balances marmalade depth against the dry juniper spine of the original, a summery gin that stays unmistakably Tanqueray. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.

A 140-Year-Old Recipe, Finally Bottled
Charles Tanqueray created his London Dry in 1830, but it was a trip to Spain in the 1860s — and the big, bitter, marmalade-perfect Seville oranges — that produced the recipe Tanqueray kept in the vault for over a century. Flor de Sevilla finally launched it in 2018, and the idea is simple: take the 4x-distilled London Dry the world knows and infuse it with the fruit Charles himself admired. The result sits with the rest of the Tanqueray range in our gin collection as the bottle that converts citrus skeptics.
Tasting Notes
Nose: bittersweet Seville orange, marmalade, piney juniper, sweet vanilla. Palate: orange zest and bittersweet citrus over classic London Dry structure — herbal juniper, coriander spice, angelica dryness. Finish: smooth, lingering bitter orange.
How to Enjoy
Best as a Sevilla G&T: plenty of ice, premium tonic, an orange wedge, and a rosemary sprig in a copa glass. It also makes an outstanding Negroni, where the bitter orange complements Campari, or a simple long pour over ice with soda.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Seville orange?
A bitter orange variety from southern Spain — too astringent to eat fresh, but prized for intensely aromatic peel; it defines English marmalade and gives this gin its bittersweet depth.
Is Tanqueray Sevilla sweeter than regular Tanqueray?
Slightly — the Seville orange brings a softening sweetness, but the dry juniper backbone keeps it firmly a gin rather than a liqueur.
When was Tanqueray Sevilla released?
First released in 2018, based on Charles Tanqueray's 1860s Spanish recipe — it became one of the fastest-growing flavored gins in the UK market.
