Nikka Coffey Gin

Henrik Larsen — Japanese Citrus Symphony

9/10

Nikka's use of four Japanese citrus varieties — yuzu, kabosu, amanatsu, shequasar — creates multi-layered citrus unlike anything Western gins achieve. The sansho pepper tingle and exceptionally smooth Coffey-still texture at 47% are extraordinary.

Celeste Moreno — Coffey Still Magic

8/10

The Coffey still gives this gin an exceptionally smooth texture. The yuzu-led citrus is bright and clean, the sansho pepper adds a unique tingle, and at 47% ABV the juniper is present but gently subordinate. Beautifully Japanese.

Finn OBrien — East Meets West

8/10

Nikka have taken their whisky expertise and applied it to gin with stunning results. The Coffey still smoothness carries the Japanese citrus beautifully and at 47% ABV the subordinate juniper lets the unique botanicals shine.
