Tokyo Hachio gin with elderflower ⋅ 40% ⋅ 500ML

Lighter, fresher and more floral than its classic version, Takyo Hachio gin was born of the desire to create a Tokyo Dry Gin at Hachioji, near Tôkyô, comparable to the London Dry Gin, this gin goes back to basics to offer a new standard. Whereas today's Japanese gins use a base of shochu or regional botanicals, Tôkŷo Hachio uses a base of neutral corn liqueur, giving the gin a sweet, delicate taste that envelops the aroma of its botanicals. This version uses more elderflower and contains less alcohol, giving it a sweet, floral taste that all gin lovers will appreciate. It's ideal for summer cocktails like Bee's Knees, or as a Gin Tonic. Reputed to be one of the world's top 4 spirits, gin was originally intended as a medicinal spirit. The Tokyo Hachio bottle is a direct reference to this, while its octagonal label is a tribute to the kanji of the number 8, the character ""八"", ""Hachi"", which is both a sign of good fortune and a nod to Hachioji, where the gin is made.
