Highlight
Komasa Gin Hojicha is a Japanese artisan gin produced in Kagoshima on a base of honkaku shochu and juniper berry spirit. Its identity revolves around toasted hojicha green tea, supported by coriander, juniper and Japanese hinoki to achieve a dry, toasted, vegetal and subtly woody profile. It is a particularly interesting bottle for lovers of contemporary gin and Japanese spirits with strong gastronomic character.

History and character
Komasa Jyozo was founded in 1883 in Kagoshima and its history is deeply tied to shochu. The Komasa Gin range emerges as a contemporary reinterpretation of the house's distilling expertise, drawing on ingredients from the Japanese heritage — such as tea and regional botanicals — to create expressions with their own distinct identity.
Komasa Hojicha does not seek to resemble a classic London Dry or a conventional citrus gin. Its appeal lies in the tensión between toasted, herbal and aromatic wood notes, with a very Japanese elegance and a profile that is particularly seductive for curious palates and gastronomic tables.
