Kyoto Distillery "Ki No Bi" Gin

• Dry gin produced by The Kyoto Distillery in Kyoto, Japan
• Distilled using rice spirit and featuring locally sourced Japanese botanicals
• The 11 botanicals include juniper, yellow yuzu, akamatsu (Japanese red pine), red shiso leaves, bamboo leaves, ginger, lemon, orris, gyokuro tea from the Uji region, green sanshō (Japanese Szechuan peppercorn) and kinome (leaves from the peppercorn tree)
• Botanicals are divided into six distilling groups based on flavor and aroma: Base, Citrus, Herbal, Spice, Green Tea and Fruity & Floral
• Each group is distilled separately before blending; the blend is left to marry in stainless steel before bottling
• Proofed down with water sourced from the Fushimi region, known for its delicate brewing water
• This flagship gin is expressive, elegant, and dry, beaming with yuzu and delicate spice. Try in a classic Martini or Gin Old Fashioned and let your imagination take it from there
• 45.7% ABV

Located in the southern part of Kyoto city, The Kyoto distillery shares its locale with sake producers that have been in business for hundreds of years, but it holds the distinction of being Japan’s first dedicated gin distillery.
