About this deal

In Japan, there’s a fleeting period during spring when the sakura (cherry) blossoms are in full bloom. In a tradition known as ‘Hanami’ the people head out to celebrate the cascading of these blooms and the change of season.

Producing a good cask-aged Gin is no mean feat, with so much risk and uncertainty, the distiller has to be at the top of their game, but the results are often most rewarding. THE JUDGING CRITERIA I ginnen finder vi enebær og mandariner samt en række hemmelige krydderier. Til sidst infuseres ginnen med friske kirsebærblomster, og det giver en skøn floral karakter til smagen og eftersmagen. Ukiyo Japanese Blossom Gin - Gin & Tonic 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. Gins will be judged with a pre-determined tonic expertly chosen by The Gin To My Tonic. THE JUDGING CRITERIATo qualify for this category, the gin must not have any flavour, maceration or botanicals added post distillation. THE JUDGING CRITERIA

Både Ukiyo Blossom Gin og Ukiyo Yuzu Gin er lavet på en base af de fineste byg, der først destilleres i en traditionel japansk gryde med shōchū -spiritus (Japansk destillator). Denne shōchū -spiritus gendestilleres så i en traditionel Potstill stadig med enebær og mandarin før den infuseres med den skønne smag af Kirsebærblomst. The gins were crafted on Japan’s Kyushu Island, with locally sourced grains distilled into shōchū. The shōchū is then infused with botanicals including juniper, mandarin and spices. Old Tom is a slightly sweetened style of gin made famous in the 18th Century, usually sweetened with either Sugar or Honey. To qualify your product must be marketed / branded as an Old Tom Gin and cannot simply contain Sugar or Honey. THE JUDGING CRITERIA Do not adjust your screens. This may look like an expensive cologne bottle, but rest assured, it contains some of the smoothest gin we’ve ever tasted. Fashion photographer Mert Alas dedicated four years to concocting the perfect blend to get the party started, and for that, we’re eternally grateful.
