hidden curiosities aranami japanese botanical navy strength 59 abv craft gin great taste award 2023 three star award
"This is a delightfully aromatic complex and nuanced gin. Clear as crystal with an elegantly inviting nose displaying a whisper of ripe juniper, bright and fresh citrus and a dancing hint of sansho pepper with lavender and violet florality. Smooth and silky at first with a velvety texture that suddenly steps up about three gears at once with vibrant peppery intensity!
"There is a woody character to the pepper with hints of cinnamon bark and star anise which builds furiously and reaches a peak of spicy, herby forest fire smokiness. Crunchy sour plum, red cherry and cherry stone then follow on the super long tongue-tingling finale with an olive-like umami note on the thirty-plus-seconds-later finish.
"This is a true blockbuster of a gin, sensational!" - The Guild of Fine Food

Hidden Curiosities Gin IWSC Gold Award Winner 95 Points
"The nose is subtle with a wonderful floral sweetness and delicate aromas of cinnamon, clove and nutmeg. Vanilla sponge and black pepper are the perfect accompaniments to the deep, juniper backbone running throughout. The finish is lengthy and vibrant. Remarkable!" - IWSC
