Awayuki Kyuri Cucumber Gin

Awayuki Kyuri Cucumber Gin is a Japanese craft gin from Awayuki, the gin brand of Umenoyado Brewery, a sake producer in Nara Prefecture best known in the United States for its strawberry gin. Kyuri is the Japanese word for cucumber, specifically the thin-skinned, seed-light Japanese variety that is crisper and less watery than Western cucumbers, and it is the defining botanical here. The gin is distilled from 100% grain spirit with juniper and a classic supporting bill of botanicals including coriander and angelica, then infused with kyuri for a cucumber-forward, delicately floral profile. Bottled at 44% ABV (88 proof), a touch above standard strength so the fresh notes hold up on ice. The producer describes it as bright and clean with a cooling, garden-fresh cucumber character, subtle sweetness and an ultra-smooth finish, with juniper and a little green spice underneath so it still reads as gin rather than cucumber vodka. Serve it in a Gin and Tonic with a cucumber ribbon, a Cucumber Collins, a Gimlet, or a very cold dry Martini. 750ml.
