Yatsu Boshi Gin

Yatsu Boshi Gin, crafted in the Yatsushiro Distillery of Kumamoto Prefecture, Kyushu, Japan, is a finely tuned blend that celebrates the essence of local citrus fruits. This gin, with an ABV of 43%, is built on the base of Kumamoto’s pure water, enhancing the aromatic profile of its botanicals. The result is a refreshing and complex spirit that opens with the bright, zesty notes of Ao yuzu, followed by the juicy, rich character of Sumo mandarin, and rounded out with the subtle bitterness of Banpeiyu orange.

The palate dances with mandarin and orange, bringing a jammy sweetness with touches of lemon zest and lime. As the flavours unfold, herbal notes of thyme, lavender, and wild basil emerge, lending depth and complexity. The finish is long, with a warming peppery kick and a lingering bitterness of orange peel, creating an intriguing and satisfying experience.

A modern gin with a unique citrus-forward profile, Yatsu Boshi Gin is perfect for cocktails where bright, herbaceous flavours can shine.
