Four Pillars Yuzu Gin 700ml

Was $89.99, Now $79.50

It started with oranges in Rare Dry Gin, finger limes in Navy Strength Gin and continued through blood orange, grapefruit, kumquat and bergamot – the list goes on. In fact, if you can name a citrus, chances are Four Pillars have distilled it.

With three limited-edition trial runs under their belts, Four Pillars is ready to launch the newest member of their core range: a stand-alone, honed and perfected Fresh Yuzu Gin. A bright, aromatic and (yes) fresh dry gin made with locally-grown yuzu and inspired by our adventures making gin with Japanese friends.

Native to China, Tibet and Japan, yuzu is a citrus fruit with amazing aromatics that are a mix of lemon, mandarin, kumquat and grapefruit. The yuzu brings a mix of lemon, mandarin, cumquat and grapefruit aromatics – all bright and fresh citrus notes – while the addition of finger lime adds some deeper citrus character.

Try a riff on a Lemon Drop, and make yourself a Yuzu Drop Martini:

• 60ml Four Pillars Yuzu Gin
• 20ml lemon juice
• 10ml simple syrup, like Crawley's Cocktail Simple
• 10ml triple sec
  
• Caster sugar for rim

Rim a chilled cocktail glass with caster sugar. Stir ingredients over ice in a mixing glass, and strain into rimmed glass. 

ABV: 41.8%
