<p>Knut Hansen Dry Gin, produced in a family-run German manufactory, combines the traditional art of distillation with the fascinating story of the sailor Knut Hansen. This legendary sailor, who once traveled the world's oceans, still inspires the essence of this unique gin today.<br><br>This year's Knut Hansen Yorokobi Edition is a tribute to the culture and nature of Japan. The result of an inspiring journey, during which not only exclusive botanicals were discovered, but also unforgettable moments and encounters were collected. The name "Yorokobi" means joy and reflects what this special edition is intended to convey.<br><br>The extraordinary botanicals include sakura, umeboshi, wasabi, goya cucumber and matcha tea - all characteristic ingredients of Japan. This diversity is combined in a distillate that takes the taste buds on a real adventure. The special highlight of this edition is the base alcohol, which, unlike classic wheat alcohol, is made from rice, giving the gin a special depth. Rice terraces were visited near Nagasaki, which inspired the cultivation. The main botanicals were each macerated and distilled separately in order to perfectly develop their aromas.<br><br>The bottle design, created by David Stiller, shows shisa lions, torii gates and rice terraces. The shisa lions, symbolic guardians from Okinawa, stand for protection and good fortune, an important part of Japanese culture.<br><br>This edition is limited to 4,000 bottles worldwide.</p>
