When a world renowned Japanese whisky house turns its attention to gin, the result is anything but ordinary. Nikka Coffey Gin is distilled with the same meticulous craftsmanship that made its whiskies legendary but here, it’s citrus, spice, and grain spirit that take center stage. It's Japan in a glass: disciplined, intricate, and stunningly clean.

Nikka Coffey Gin 70cl
Brand: Nikka | Category: Japanese Gin | ABV: 47% | Origin: Japan | Vol: 700ml

Tasting Profile
Nose: Zesty yuzu, kabosu, and amanatsu citrus leap out, softened by a clean, grainy sweetness and a delicate floral lift.
Palate: Bold yet silky. Layers of tangy citrus peel, green apple, sansho pepper, and a cool juniper backbone create incredible clarity and freshness.
Finish: Long, crisp, and vibrantly spiced. A warming fade of Japanese pepper and lemon peel lingers with perfect poise.

Production Details
Distilled in Nikka’s custom-designed Coffey still, typically used for grain whisky, this gin is built on a high purity corn and malted barley base. Eleven botanicals, including Japanese citrus fruits, sansho pepper, and coriander, are carefully blended to showcase texture as much as flavor. This is gin through a whisky-maker’s lens: smooth, structured, and detail-obsessed.

Perfect For
Minimalist cocktails, zen like G&Ts, or sipping over a single cube of ice. It’s a statement gin that rewards quiet appreciation as much as mixology.

Expert Notes
Awarded multiple golds at the IWSC and World Gin Awards, Nikka Coffey Gin is praised for its purity, citrus complexity, and refined heat. A must-have for collectors, Japanese spirits lovers, and cocktail purists.

Customer Reviews
🗣️ “This isn’t just a gin, it’s precision distilled. Like drinking citrus silk.”
🗣️ “Pairs beautifully with tonic, but it’s honestly a shame to mix it.”
🗣️ “You can taste the craftsmanship. Every note is intentional.”

Interesting Fact
Yuzu, amanatsu, and kabosu, three types of Japanese citrus, are used to bring a bright, aromatic punch to this gin. They’re rare even in Japan, and almost unheard of in Western-style gins.

Serving Suggestions
Serve over a single ice cube or with premium tonic and a twist of grapefruit peel. Want it more dynamic? Try it in a Japanese Gin Martini with dry vermouth and a drop of yuzu bitters.

Distillery Background
Founded by Masataka Taketsuru, the father of Japanese whisky, Nikka has long been known for merging Scottish tradition with Japanese precision. The Coffey stills at Miyagikyo Distillery are legendary for producing some of the smoothest grain spirits in the world and now, they give birth to a gin that rivals Nikka’s finest malts in finesse.
