The journey of this classic floral Gin is born from a distillation with traditional Japanese rice spirit. Our balance, harmony and equilibrium is the result of carefully sourced Japanese Sakura blossom and native botanicals. UKIYO Japanese spirits are born in Chiba east of Tokyo and are made with rice that is masterfully distilled into our Gin and Vodka expressions. We begin with a base of the finest quality spirit made with locally grown rice, a celebration of Japan's most recognised harvest. This native ingredient lends a distinct balance and elevated textural mouthfeel to our gins. We distill with 11 botanicals focusing on 5 native Japanese flavours. Juniper | Yuzu Peel | Mikan Peel | Sakura Flower | Sakura Leaf | Sansho Pepper | Coriander | Angelica Root | Lemon Peel | Cardamon | Rosemary. The result is a range of masterfully distilled Japanese Gins that celebrate the three core gin profiles: Classic, Floral & Citrus.
