Masahiro OKINAWA Gin The Japanese Craft Gin Recipe 02 is an exceptional craft gin produced on the island of Okinawa in Japan. This island, situated south of Japan in tropical climes and stretching as far as Thailand, is renowned for its hot climate and exotic flora. Masahiro Okinawa Gin Recipe 02 perfectly captures the essence of this region by using locally grown botanicals, which enrich the gin with a unique and refreshing flavour.

A standout feature of this gin is the use of citrus tankan, a citrus fruit native to Okinawa. This fruit lends the gin a refreshing, slightly sweet and lemony note that harmonises perfectly with the other ingredients. Other botanicals include southern-style mint, cloves, moon peaches, ginger and lemongrass. This combination creates an intense yet harmonious flavour that is both refreshing and complex. The gin is distilled with awamori, a traditional rice spirit from Okinawa, which gives it a particularly deep and distinctive base.

This gin pairs particularly well with fresh Asian dishes such as sushi, grilled fish or spicy Thai dishes, which complement its flavours wonderfully.
