Komasa Gin is the craft gin label proudly presented by Komasa Jyozo, a shochu distillery in Kagoshima, Japan with over 130 years of distilling history. Gin and shochu both share the fact that they are distilled spirits. Drawing on decades of distilling expertise and know-how accumulated through making shochu, the distillery unveiled a new line of gins in 2018. Komasa Jyozo uses their rice shochu as the base for Komasa Gin, to which they add juniper berries and as few other ingredients as possible in order to let the main botanicals shine on their own. Komasa Jyozo’s goal is to utilize and express the natural fragrances and flavours of their quality ingredients to the fullest. With Komasa Gin, they hope they have hit upon a revolutionary style of gin that is eminently easy to drink and perfect for everyone. A wonderful tea-infused gin from Komasa Jyozo, the Hojicha expression is infused with juniper berries, shochu, Japanese cypress and roasted tea leaves from Kagoshima, which is one of Japan’s most famous tea producing regions. Roasting the green tea means that the caffeine bitterness is eliminated, making for a more aromatic, mellow flavour. Pair the gin with soda or even hot water in the same way you would with tonic for an intriguing, fragrant tipple. Roasted leafy green tea alongside earthy juniper, leading into a touch of sweetness and a fragrant, woody finish.

Sacred Gin is an aromatic and creamy artisan gin with exceptional character, hand made by award winning microdistiller Ian Hart at his home in Highgate. Each botanical including organic fresh cut citrus is separately macerated and re-distilled with English grain spirit at low temperature then combined according to a secret recipe, creating a lush and fresh London Dry Gin like no other. Sacred Spirits is a family run distillery based in Highgate, London. Founded in 2008 by Ian Hart and Hilary Whitney, the brand has established a strong reputation in the UK, Europe, and the USA. Just landing in Australia for the first time, Sacred spirits are made using organically sourced botanicals, vacuum distilled by hand at the Highgate Distillery, just a few yards from the famous cemetery. Sacred's drinks are characterised by an unmistakable quality and inimitable flavour. Sacred founder and distiller Ian Hart grew up in the same house and London suburb of Highgate where Sacred Spirits was born. Ian was always fascinated with chemistry, and first turned to exploring his love of French wine. He then switched gears to distilling gin, and after a few trial and errors, made his first bottle of gin (bottled by Hilary Whitney, his partner). They took the bottle to Ian's local pub and offered free samples and received direct, unfiltered feedback from some seasoned regulars. On recipe 23, the locals gave him the stamp of approval, and Sacred Spirits took off from there. Ian and Hilary refused to follow the normal idea of pot distillation was the only and best way to make gin. They proved that vacuum distilled spirits are every bit as flavourful (one could argue more!) than their pot distilled brethren. Vacuum distillation occurs at a much lower temperature, leaving the uncooked distillate lusher and fresher.

The sweet and refreshing aroma of strawberries with a deep and lingering finish of herbs.

With the juiciness of strawberries shining through the intricately overlapping flavours, this is a gin that evokes the rich climate of tropical Kagoshima.

Tasting note: [15ml sample] Described as the first gin to contain polyphenols and grape anthocyanins (the molecules that make up tannins and contribute some of texture and colour to red wine, better known as antioxidants). The colour is translucent ruby red. The aroma starts subdued but gains definition with citrus and ripe lime before keenly accenting pink grapefruit. Citrus and pepper lead on the palate, the finish highlighting fresh grapefruit and pepper while also being drying and finely tannic. Juniper takes back seat, but the key note botanicals are beautifully expressed. 44% Alc./Vol
