Etsu Double Orange: Crafted Pleasure in Every Sip
Artisanal Excellence
Etsu Double Orange Gin embodies centuries of tradition and a commitment to artisanal craftsmanship. Derived from an ancient recipe, its name, “Etsu,” translates to “pleasure” in Japanese, a fitting descriptor for the delightful experience it promises.
A Fusion of Tradition and Innovation
Crafted at the prestigious Akita distillery on the northern shores of Honshū Island, Etsu Gin undergoes a meticulous process. Traditional botanicals, including Japanese bitter orange peel, juniper berries, liquorice, angelica roots, and coriander seeds, undergo a seven-day maceration, infusing the spirit with depth and complexity. This careful preparation is followed by distillation without the botanicals, resulting in a gin of unparalleled finesse and elegance.
Pure Essence of Japan
Water sourced from the pristine Ōu Mountains, Japan’s longest mountain range, is used in the distillation process. This water imbues Double Orange Gin with purity and freshness, enhancing its character and ensuring a truly authentic taste of Japan.
