Description
Etsu Japanese Gin Pacific Ocean Water 70cl, 45% is a distinctive Japanese gin from Hokkaido, crafted to combine fresh citrus botanicals with a refined maritime character. Made at the Asahikawa Distillery on the northern island of Hokkaido, this expression uses Pacific Ocean water to bring a subtle iodised note and mineral freshness to the gin.
The name Etsu means “pleasure” in Japanese, and this bottle reflects that elegant and balanced style. The gin is produced after a long botanical maceration, allowing the flavours to develop with clarity and depth. Japanese yuzu, bitter orange, coriander, juniper and other botanicals create a bright aromatic profile, while the ocean water influence adds freshness, salinity and a smooth coastal edge.
At 45%, Etsu Pacific Ocean Water has enough strength to carry beautifully in cocktails, especially a premium gin and tonic, Martini or citrus-led serve. The original illustrated presentation box gives the bottle a strong visual identity, making it attractive for gifting, home bars and gin collectors.
