Akori Premium Gin is produced in Spain as part of the Akori range, a project that explores a softer and more aromatic style of gin inspired by Japanese flavor sensibilities. Rather than focusing on intensity, the concept emphasizes balance, smoothness, and an accessible aromatic profile built around fruit and citrus.
Citrus · Spicy · Fruity
One of the defining elements of Akori Premium Gin is its rice-based spirit, which replaces the more common neutral alcoholNeutral spiritAgricultural spirit rectified to at least 96% ABV, almost tasteless. It is the base later flavoured with botanicals.Glossary derived from cereals. This choice contributes to a notably smooth and rounded mouthfeel and serves as a neutral canvas for the selected botanicals. Juniper provides the structural backbone expected of a gin, while the overall composition allows non-traditional fruit elements to play a visible role.
On the nose, the profile is fresh and gently expressive. Citrus notes appear first, supported by soft fruit impressions. Juniper is present but restrained, allowing kumquat and dragon fruit to bring brightness and a subtle exotic character. A light spicy nuance from ginger adds aromatic depth without sharpness.
The palate is smooth and approachable. The rice-based alcohol gives a silky texture, carrying citrus peel and fruit notes across the mid-palate. Juniper maintains definition, while ginger introduces a mild warmth that remains controlled. The finish is clean and lightly fruity, with lingering citrus freshness and minimal bitterness.
Akori Premium Gin is well suited to a Gin and Tonic with a neutral tonic and simple garnish, and also works in uncomplicated cocktails where its fruit-driven and smooth character can remain clearly perceptible.
