Etsu Pacific Ocean Water Gin is distilled at the Asahikawa Distillery in Hokkaido, the second largest of the four main islands of the archipelago, but the second least populated.
Spring water from the mountains and water from the Sea of Japan are added to carefully selected botanicals, such as juniper berry, bitter orange peel, liquorice root, angelica and coriander to produce this unique gin, which captures the essence of the Japanese coast in a bottle.
The Etsu Pacific Ocean Water bottle is made from 100% recycled glass (PCR). This process can form bubbles and a rough texture called "orange peel" on the glass as well as some imperfections, such as coloured lines and different shades of blue to green, giving the bottle its unique, organic and authentic design, very similar to that of handcrafted glass.
