Ori-Gin1848 Tropical & Rich Gin - 500ml
Ori-Gin 1848 was created with the idea of capturing the essence of Okinawa in a single sip. Its style is tropical and full-bodied, underpinned by fresh botanical tones. Juniper provides the classic backbone, supported by layers of flavour that reveal Okinawa’s distinctive character.
The base spirit is Awamori brewed with cherry blossom yeast, isolated from the blossoms of Motobu Town, known for Japan’s earliest cherry blossom festival. To this, nine botanicals from Okinawa are added, including fragrant peach pineapple from Iriomote Island as the signature ingredient. Whenever possible, fresh produce from local farms is used to guarantee quality.
In contrast to conventional methods where all botanicals are distilled together, each element here is distilled separately to preserve its individuality. Five raw spirits are created—demanding more than five times the work of standard production—and then blended to achieve precise balance.
Founded in 1848 in Shuri during the reign of King Shō Tai, Mizuho Shuzo remains the oldest existing brewery in the Shuri Sanka districts. Its Awamori, once reserved as a precious sake for the royal court, reflects centuries of tradition. Today the distillery continues to protect this heritage while developing new expressions that link Okinawa’s past and present.
