135 East Hyogo Dry Gin

Named after the 135° East meridian that crosses Akashi City in the Hyogo prefecture, this Japanese gin from Kaikyo distillery is inspired by Japan’s important Taisho period –  a time when Eastern culture merged with Western culture. By combining botanicals from East and West, three traditional ones from Europe and five uniquely Japanese ones – all sourced from small local producers and the best specialists in Japan – Master Distiller Kimio Yonezawa has created a new innovative and unconventional type of gin: the “Hyogo Dry Gin”. 

Expect a powerful floral aroma over scents of citrus fruits. The palate is silky and balanced with citrus, bitter and floral notes, while sansho pepper gives it a warm, peppery finish.
