Akita Prefecture is located on the coast of the sea of Japan and extends East to the Ou Mountains, the longest mountain range in Japan. Aside from juniper berries, common botanicals found in gin are lemon peels, coriander seed and angelica root, which adds a piney flavor.Not only does this translate into some exquisitely flavoured gins, it also allows bartenders in Japan to craft cocktails that won’t be found anywhere else in the world. Japanese gin represents the fusion of traditional distillation methods with a deep respect for the local flora, yielding a spirit that is both familiar and strikingly new. The production of Japanese gin benefits from the unique climate and the distinct four seasons that the country experiences – but it’s the use of botanicals that is perhaps most notable to the consumer. Yuzu, sansho pepper, sakura (cherry blossom), green tea, and shiso leaf are just a few of the ingredients that give Japanese gin its distinctive character.
