Benizakura 9418 '#0101' Gin

Benizakura 9418 '#0101' Gin

Recipe #0101 is the distillery's trademark gin and is the basis for all other gin recipes. This original recipe is full of umami and was created with classic botanicals such as juniper berry, coriander or angelica, but also typically Japanese ingredients such as Hidaka kombu, dried daikon and dried shiitake mushroom.

Botanicals: Juniper, coriander, cinnamon, Hidaka kombu, angelica, lemon peel, blueberry, dried shiitake mushroom, Kiriboshi daikon, rose red petal, black pepper, cardamom, white pepper, clove.

ALCOHOL: 45%

TASTING NOTES: Aromatic with forward juniper, citrus and a hint of cinnamon. The palate is robust with a juniper dominance supported by a heft of umami from the kombu & shiitake.

Wonderful neat over ice or with a splash of soda. Even better in a Gibson!
