Whilst we can’t travel to the Tokyo Olympics this year, we can celebrate them with a tipple of Japanese gin from the comfort of our own homes. Take a peek at Gin Loot’s pick of the best:
KI NO BI Kyoto Dry Gin 700ml RRP$125.00
Roughly translating to ‘The beauty of the seasons’, this is a gin inspired by tradition and location. KI NO BI Kyoto Dry is made in a recognisable dry style with a distinct Japanese accent from unique regional botanicals such as yuzu, hinoki wood chips, bamboo, gyokuro tea and green sanshō berries.
Meticulous attention to detail makes this one of the most impressive bottles of gin you can find.
Tasting Notes
● Nose: A beautiful balance of fragrant mandarin, lemon and grapefruit
blending with grassy, herbaceous green tea leaves. Pine-forward juniper
and an undercurrent of spice remain ever present.
● Taste: Elegance, sophistication and balance, this gin epitomises Japanese
style. Plenty of citrus at first sip that transitions into menthol shiso leaf.
The finish becomes warming and spicy with ginger and wormwood.
● Serving Recommendation: Light Tonic By StrangeLove and garnish with
shiso leaf or mandarin peel.
