KI NO BI SEI is made according to the same intricate production method as the original KI NO BI, using 11 botanicals distilled in six distinct flavour categories, known as the 6 Elements. The final blend has been recalibrated by the distilling team to bring out the best of each botanical at the higher strength. This bottling is at the traditional Royal Navy strength of 54.5% abv. In contrast with the original KI NO BI, which has a delicate and gentle profile, KI NO BI SEI has a thicker mouthfeel and full-bodied flavour, which works well in cocktails.
The Ki No Bi Distillery, located in Kyoto, Japan, is known for crafting artisanal gin with a deep commitment to quality and tradition. Inspired by Kyoto's rich cultural heritage, the distillery uses locally sourced botanicals like yuzu, sansho pepper, and green tea, distilled with pure water from Fushimi. This meticulous process results in a balanced and flavorful gin that captures the essence of Kyoto's serene landscapes and centuries-old traditions. With every sip you can experience the distillery's dedication to craftsmanship firsthand.
The higher proof allows the distinctive taste of KI NO BI’s flavour profile to prevail. It is punchy at first on the palate, while retaining the cleanness and harmony of the original KI NO BI. All the flavours are enhanced while remaining well-balanced. A perfect gin for cocktails.
Ki No Bi Sei can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or in cocktails to highlight its robust flavours. Its bold botanical profile pairs exceptionally well with tonic water, creating a refreshing gin and tonic. For a sophisticated twist, mix it in a martini with a dash of dry vermouth and a lemon twist. The gin's intense notes of yuzu, green tea, and sansho pepper also complement Japanese cuisine, particularly sashimi, sushi, and tempura, enhancing the dining experience with its aromatic and balanced profile.
