Nikka is continuing to expand its Coffey Still lineup with the addition of a new gin and vodka to complement the malt- and grain-based whiskies distilled on the multi-story apparatus located in the Miyagikyo distillery. Using Japanese citrus varieties like yuzu, kabosu, amanatsu and shikuwasa, as well as sansho pepper and apples, the gin is a burst of fresh and fruity delights. That bright citric element is then paired with juniper, angelica, coriander and lemon peel to bolster it with a clean and aromatic finish. The result is familiar, yet completely unique in the current gin market. Bartenders and cocktail enthusiasts should flock to this with equal relish.
