NikkaCoffeyGin(700mL)

<p><em>Quintessential and exceptional Japanese Gin</em></p><p>Certain Whisky-makers decide to shake things up while they wait for their amber product to reach maturity, so they grab their stills and make Gin. <em>Bruichladdich made the glorious Botanist and the Kingsbarns distillery created the fabulous Darnley</em>. Now, the alpha of Japanese Whiskies, Nikka, came up with a lavish and unique expression of Gin. <em>It’s distilled in the famous Coffey stills (designed by Aeneas Coffey and imported from Scotland to Japan in the 1960s)</em>, which gives it its name and uniqueness.</p><p>Corn and malt distillate serves as a base while an abundance of botanicals is thrown in: Japanese citrus hybrid Amantasu, angelica, apple, coriander, Hirami lemon, Japanese pepper, juniper, Kabosu and Yuzu. <em>Only 12 thousand bottles were made</em> and while you’d be wise to put it in a Gin and Tonic or a Negroni, you’d be wiser to sip on it neat – expect a ridiculously long finish and a palate you’ve never experienced before. Nikka seems to fail at failing.</p>
