Ukiyo Japanese Blossom Gin (40%)

In Japan, there’s a fleeting period during spring when the sakura (cherry) blossoms are in full bloom. In a tradition known as ‘Hanami’ the people head out to celebrate the cascading of these blooms and the change of season.
Their Blossom Gin is born from a base of locally grown barley that is distilled into a traditional shōchū spirit. They redistill their shōchū with juniper, regional citrus, cherry blossom and native botanicals, always exercising restraint in the pursuit of clarity and perfection. The fruits of this endeavour are born out in the delicate blossom aromas that emulate those found in the mountains and coastline surrounding their home in Kagoshima.
