DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Nozawa Onsen Distillery opened in a renovated canning factory in the hot-spring ski village of Nozawa Onsen, in Nagano Prefecture in the Japanese Alps. Its Classic Dry Gin starts from a rice distillate and is made in a copper pot still, with botanicals gathered from the peaks, slopes and valley floor of nearby Mt. Kenashi.
The key botanicals are sansho pepper, Hiroshima lemon and kuromoji, a Japanese spicebush. The importer describes bright citrus pushed along by the tingle of local sansho. It is bottled at 48% ABV (96 proof), which is strong for a gin, and it shows in a Martini, where the extra strength carries the citrus and pepper through.
Use it in a dry Martini with a lemon twist, a Gimlet or a gin and soda with plenty of ice. Keep the tonic light so the sansho comes through. It also works alongside sushi, yuzu desserts or salted nuts.
Bottle size: 700ml
