Cambridge Japanese Gin
CAMBRIDGE Japanese Gin is a Cambridge Distillery gin made in England with Japanese botanicals, combining classic juniper with yuzu peel, shiso leaf, toasted white sesame and sansho pepper. The official producer describes it as the first gin made with Japanese botanicals, individually distilled and blended into a dry, crisp style with green aromatic notes.
Cambridge Distillery states that the Japanese botanicals supporting the juniper are individually distilled before blending. Its broader distillery method uses tailored distillation variables for each botanical, designed to preserve delicate fresh ingredients. For this expression, the verified botanical set includes yuzu peel, shiso leaf, toasted white sesame, sansho pepper, cucumber and juniper.
In the glass it appears clear and bright. The aroma is led by peppery spice and zesty citrus, softened by cucumber and a touch of fresh ginger. On the palate, dry yuzu and shiso meet toasted white sesame, sansho pepper and clean cucumber notes, before lemon pith and earthy-spicy juniper carry a medium, precise finish.
Serve CAMBRIDGE Japanese Gin when you want a refined, botanical-led gin for sipping or stirred cocktails. The producer recommends it neat or in a Japanese martini with dry vermouth and a fresh shiso leaf garnish, making it suitable for aperitif serves and thoughtful gin gifting.
