Komasa Hojicha Japanese Craft Gin (500 ml)

A roasted, vegetal aroma fills your mouth with your first sip. A subtle sweetness and wood-like fragrance appear as you exhale, and before you know it, you’re back for another sip. A familiar fragrance brings you back, the effortless combination of roasted Hojicha tea with gin. Kagoshima, one of Japan’s leading tea-producing regions, is the only place such an unlikely but perfect match could happen.

Founded in 2018, the Kanosuke distillery presents one of its first creations ; Komasa Hojicha gin. Made from locally distilled shochu as an alcoholic base, this unique gin is made up of a classic aromatic bouquet including juniper berry, to which are added original ingredients such as Hojicha tea and coriander. All the elements are infused independently of each other in order to extract a maximum of aromas.
