Is Tanqueray gin organic?

As a result, Tanqueray revives a bottom score for The Good Shopping Guide’s Organic category.

What can Tanqueray do to improve its score? 

Tanqueray’s below-benchmark score within The Good Shopping Guide’s Ethical Spirits sector is the result of a calculation of multiple ethical criteria.

Tanqueray’s parent company, Diageo, should significantly reduce or better yet cancel its political donations to stop impacting democracy and achieve a higher score.
