UKIYO Japanese Blossom Gin, 40%, 70 cl

Product Information

Japanese gin is a fascinating and relatively new addition to the world of artisan spirits, embodying the meticulousness and reverence for nature that are hallmarks of Japanese craftsmanship. Its emergence as a premium spirit category reflects Japan's rich botanical heritage and the country's innovative approach to traditional gin-making techniques. Ukiyo Blossom Gin is created in Kagoshima, with a harvest of barley distilled into a traditional Japaneseshōchūspirit. It is then redistilled using key botanicals and the fragrance of Sakura flower. The result is said to celebrate Japan’s bounty of blossom. The name "Ukiyo" is deeply rooted in Japanese culture, referring to the "Floating World" and capturing the essence of fleeting, transient moments of beauty and enjoyment. True to its moniker, Ukiyo Gin offers a sensory journey that feels both ethereal and grounding.

Ginnen fra Ukiyo er baseret på den særlige japanske alkohol, shōchū, der er lavet på ris. Ved at bruge denne type alkohol er resultatet en mild base, der virkelig giver plads til de forskellige botanicals. Several Japanese distilleries have gained international fame. Among them, the Kyoto Distillery, with its KI NO BI gin, which translates to "the beauty of the seasons," is often credited with being one of the first to put Japanese gin on the map. Nikka, a giant in the Japanese whisky industry, also offers a gin that features apples from Hokkaido and sansho pepper. Similarly, the House of Suntory, known for its whiskies, crafts Roku gin, which means "six," a reference to its six uniquely Japanese botanicals. Som det bliver lagt op til i navnet Japanese Blossom Gin, så har vi her en gin, der er infuseret med friske kirsebærblomster, som Japan er særlig kendt for. Og det giver altså en smag, der slet ikke er til at stå for! Det er en meget let drikkelig gin, man smager straks, at der er tale om et destillat af allerfineste kvalitet. Smagen er meget floral – og særligt noterne af kirsebærblomsten og enebæret fanger i både næse og mund.

The distillation process of Ukiyo Gin is an ode to craftsmanship. Using traditional methods combined with modern techniques ensures a spirit that's impeccably smooth and rich in character.

The future of Japanese gin looks as promising as its recent past. With a growing number of distilleries entering the market and the established ones continuously innovating, the diversity and complexity of Japanese gin are set to increase. Enthusiasts and newcomers alike can expect a continuing evolution of flavours as distillers push the boundaries of what gin can be. The bottle design, elegant and minimalist, draws inspiration from Japanese art and aesthetics, further accentuating the brand's commitment to its cultural roots. Navnet Ukiyo betyder ”Flydende Verden” og er en henvisning til en æra i Edo (der i dag er Tokyo), hvor der blev lagt vægt på ekstravagance og stil. Udtrykket refererer til en sindstilstand, hvor man har fokus på at leve i øjeblikket uden at overveje livets udfordringer. Og med en G&T lavet med gin i denne kvalitet er det ikke svært at slippe bekymringerne og bare læne sig tilbage.
