Japanese Premium Gin 'Okinawa' by Masahiro is prepared inspired by the tradition and culture of Okinawa: the distillation techniques of local liquors in Awamori (rice distillates) are used. Unlike distillers in western countries, gin is distilled in 2 different individual stills to create a unique flavor that cannot be found anywhere else. Respecting the traditional techniques that have been used in this southern island for over 130 years, a gin is produced in an original way to this day. Inspired by the terroir of Okinawa, a southern island between 2 oceans covered with mineral-rich soils, we have combined juniper berries with five local botanicals.
Masahiro Distillery was founded in 1883 by Shobun Higa. His father – Shozoku Higa (the master chef for Ryuku Kingdom) had an established reputation in Ryuku Kingdom and he was awarded with the license for Awamori (rice spirits). Shozoku’s passion for cuisines is still alive and Masahiro Distillery is famous for its production techniques, prominent qualities, and passion for innovation over 100 years.
