We call it YUZU GIN. This name, which plays on Japanese characters
used for the yuzu citrus and our distillery' s home in Aburatsu, incorporates
our respect for the constant and plentiful blessings we receive
from the land, and our pride in being able to provide the world with a
product befitting this wonderful bounty. We use two vintages of potato
shochu, "Kameshizuku" [A Drop from the Pot] and "Sora to Kaze to Daichi
to" [Skye,Wind, and Earth].The distinct taste of beni satsuma, a red sweet
potato local to Miyazaki Prefecture, and the mellow flavor achieved
through a method of preparation using large earthenware vessels to
regulate the addition and removal of heat achieves a depth of taste not
found in conventional gin.
