This Blossom Gin is born from a base of locally grown barley that is distilled into a traditional shochu spirit. The shochu is redistilled with juniper, regional citrus, cherry blossom and native botanicals, always exercising restraint in the pursuit of clarity and perfection. The fruits of this endeavour are born out in the delicate blossom aromas that emulate those found in the mountains and coastline surrounding our home in Kagoshima.
Heavy botanical style gin, hand crafted at the Thomson distillery. Juniper, citrus, lemongrass, cardamom and coriander - all delicious flavour tones, uniquely decipherable, that hum together with nowhere to hide.
The exceptional Whitley Neill Original Handcrafted Dry Gin was created by Johnny Neill, a direct descendant of a long line of distillers. Inspired by his family's sense of adventure, Johnny strove to create his own signature blend of gin: a tribute to his English distilling heritage, and an homage to the enigmatic beauty of his wife's South African homeland.
