Yuzu is a citrus fruit that is grown and loved in Japan. Visually similar to a lemon, but with a strong scent, unique herbal notes, mild bitterness and a less pungent acidic taste.
The Yuzu Gin is born from a base of locally grown barley that is distilled into a traditional shochu spirit. The Shōchū is distilled with juniper, yuzu, local citrus fruits and botanicals, respecting the 1500 year old tradition of growing and harvesting yuzu in Japan. The yuzu taste is tart and fragrant, similar to that of lemon and grapefruit, with a hint of tangerine.
Botanicals: juniper, yuzu citrus, bitter orange, coriander
