[edit] Advertising

The Products section sounds awfully like ad copy. Does anyone else think it should have a more encyclopedic tone?

Yes I do - the whole article sounds like an ad. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.49.219.251 (talk) 06:26, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Factual error

I have a bottle of Tanqueray right here and it is bottled at 47.3% ABV (94.6 proof). The article claims it is 40% ABV (80 proof.) Source?

Most spirits are 40% ABV, but many gins are around 47%, including Bombay Sapphire and Beefeater. This is due to the fact that gin is made with neutral grain spirit which is then redistilled with juniper berries (and generally with many other herbs and spices as well.)

Agreed, I used to drink Tanqueray quite a bit and I remember it being that percentage alcohol, along with several other brands of gin. That fact should be verified. AspirinKid 04:52, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

Tanqueray in the UK is 43.1% (and Bombay is 40%)Darwin-rover (talk) 21:01, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
