Fresh, vibrant and persistent, with a herbal-citrus echo and a prolonged refreshing sensation.
Editorial insight
Recipe 02 conveys a very precise idea of contemporary luxury: local identity without artifice. It does not seek to impose itself by force, but by aromatic clarity, freshness and a botanical signature rarely encountered outside Okinawa. It is a gin that feels current, yet is deeply rooted in the territory from which it comes.
Heritage & character
Masahiro Shuzo was founded in 1883 and is historically tied to awamori production in Okinawa. The creation of Masahiro Okinawa Craft Gin draws on that tradition and on a commitment to reinterpreting local distillation through botanicals that express the subtropical terroir of the island. The brand also presents itself as Okinawa's first craft gin.
