Tasting Notes

Nose

Aromatic pepper, zesty citrus and soft vegetal cucumber — fresh ginger with floral delicacy

Palate

Drying spiciness balanced by clean cucumber and peppermint — lemon pith with earthy sansho and juniper, floral and light with savoury depth at the back

Finish

Long and expressive — earthy juniper and sansho lingering with yuzu citrus brightness

Expert Review

9/10

The world's first gin using exclusively Japanese botanicals — shiso, yuzu, sansho, cucumber and sesame, each vacuum-distilled individually. Elegant, savoury, and genuinely groundbreaking.
