Kyoto Distillery Ki No Bi Go 50% 700ml Kyoto Dry Gin (kyoto Japan)
| Description: | Limited, anniversary bottling of dry gin from The Kyoto Distillery in Kyoto, Japan Shares botanicals with the Ki No Bi flagship gin, but the hinoki (Japanese cypress) has been replaced with Japanese red pine (akamatsu); bottled at a higher Abv of 50% (versus 45.7%) Full list of botanicals includes juniper, akamatsu, yellow yuzu, red shiso leaves, bamboo leaves, ginger, lemon, orris, gyokuro tea from the Uji region, green sansho (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. A nose of fresh yuzu and bright sansho burst forward, complemented by fresh grass and white-chocolate nuance from the gyokuro tea. A sweet entry on the palate is followed by pepper spice, resinous Akamatsu, and bright citrus. The finish reveals ginger and lemon with forest-like undertones of Akamatsu and juniper. 50% Abv Kl No Bl Go Kyoto Dry Gin is a limited bottling made to celebrate the 5th anniversary of internationally acclaimed Kl No Bl Gin. Go means âfiveâ in Japanese and the characters for â5th Anniversaryâ are embossed on the label. These highlighted elements have been blocked with gold leaf from Horikin, a goldsmith founded in 1711 and located a short walk from the distillery. Go has been tweaked to reflect the botanicals' qualities at a higher strength of 50% Abv.
