Built in the historic Tanglin district of Singapore, Tanglin Gin is a gin distillery boasting an impressive collection of international awards.
This week, Tanglin Gin announces the launch of their Limited Edition Tropical Gin. This special release, limited to 1,000 uniquely labelled and numbered bottles is timed perfectly to coincide with the 2024 Grand Prix Season Singapore (GPSS). The launch is supported by the Singapore Tourism Board and looks to capture the excitement and prestige of the GPSS, providing a fitting backdrop for the unveiling of this exclusive gin.
The Tanglin Limited Edition Tropical Gin embodies the city state's fusion of both tradition and innovation. The gin is distilled with an array of tropical botanicals, including mango, pineapple, orange, lime, grapefruit, and a subtle touch of lemon balm. Bottled at 42% ABV in a sleek 500ml bottle, it encapsulates the vibrant essence of Singapore with its refreshing tropical profile.
During the GPSS festivities, this special edition gin will be available at both the Tanglin Gin Distillery and The Gin Jungle bar. Each bottle is individually numbered.
“This exclusive edition is more than just a gin; it’s a tribute to Singapore’s dynamic culture and the electrifying atmosphere of the Formula 1™ season. This Limited Edition Tropical Gin is a testament to our distillery’s creativity and commitment to crafting something truly exceptional.”
– Tyler Hendrie, General Manager of Tanglin Gin
