Description
This Japanese gin takes its name from the Japanese for ‘six’, representing the six uniquely Japanese botanicals that set this spirit apart: yuzu peel, sakura flower, sakura leaf, sencha tea, gyokuro tea and sansho pepper. Harvested in accordance with ‘shun’, the moment of peak flavour, these botanicals are steeped and then distilled before being blended together with 8 traditional gin botanicals including juniper, angelica seed and cardamom.The nose has sweet cherry blossom and green tea. The palate is complex but harmonious; a traditional gin base topped by yuzu (Japanese citrus fruit) with a silky smooth texture. The finish crisp with a touch of sansho pepper spice.
