Tasting note

Nikka Coffey Gin 出自日本經典蒸餾工藝，使用 Coffey 連續蒸餾法，酒體飽滿、香氣層次豐富。先是柑橘與櫻桃的甜香，接著松針般的樹脂氣息與佛手柑清香現身，中段有帶麻感的椒香推動整個口感。47% 的酒精度賦予厚實口感與明顯的香味穿透力：入口鮮明、尾段乾爽且餘韻悠長。酒廠背景沉穩，釀造注重蒸餾掌控與植物香料的選配，並會挑選來自日本與海外的香材田地與花園，以呈現在地感與現代平衡。建議冰鎮純飲、單塊大冰塊慢飲或用來調製高階 G&T／古典琴酒雞尾酒，能同時顯現柑橘清新與椒香層次。

Nikka Coffey Gin is a spirited Japanese expression built on Nikka’s Coffey (column) distillation expertise. Aromas open with sweet orange and cherry, lifted by piney resin and bergamot citrus; a peppery, Szechuan-like spice threads through the mid-palate. The 47% ABV gives a full-bodied mouthfeel—crisp citrus drive up front, a savory, resinous core and a long, drying finish that keeps botanical spice and citrus peel lingering. Producer notes emphasize continuous Coffey still distillation and a careful marrying of traditional gin botanicals with select aromatics to produce an approachable yet distinctive style. Serve chilled neat, over a large ice cube, or in a premium Gin & Tonic to showcase its bright citrus and peppery lift.

Winery

Nikka 由竹鶴政孝創立，是日本重要的蒸餾廠之一，現由朝日集團旗下營運。Nikka 將製威士忌的蒸餾技術移植到其他烈酒製程，Coffey 連續蒸餾器的應用讓酒體乾淨且香氣集中。這款琴酒從香材挑選、蒸餾到最後調配都帶有工匠精神：部分香料來自日本本地田地與香草園，部分來自海外，強調在地風味與國際平衡。

Nikka Whisky Distilling Co., founded by Masataka Taketsuru, is one of Japan’s most respected producers. Now part of Asahi, Nikka applies its whisky-making know-how—especially Coffey continuous stills—to create distinctive spirits. The Coffey Gin is a product of that distillation tradition, blending carefully selected botanicals to balance citrus, resinous pine notes and peppery spice.
