Tanqueray Sterling Vodka | 1.75L

Detailed Description

Tanqueray Sterling vodka is made from pure grain spirit, distilled at high proof and carefully distilled a second time in a 220-year-old copper pot still. After the final distillation, the spirit is “cut” with water to give it the final desired 80 or 100 proof (40% or 50% alcohol). Tanqueray Sterling vodka carries on the tradition of expertise, taste, status and unsurpassed quality already associated with the Tanqueray name, all of which combine to create the smooth, balanced body that one would expect from a premium quality vodka.

Distillery Information

The Cameron Bridge Distillery had been operating for several years before the famous whisky distiller John Haig acquired it in 1824. Haig’s cousin, Robert Stein, invented the first continuous still and Cameron Bridge was the first distillery to produce grain whisky. The distillery takes its name from the bridge that crosses the River Leven on the distillery grounds. Once a mere ford, the present day bridge is much more substantial than the original but spans the river in exactly the same location. The river water is not used for production but it is used for cooling.
