Purchased as part of an order from yewel.de.

See Kyoto Distillery's page for the gin.

Tasting notes:

April - Okay, yeah, that's pretty intense. Pretty pleasant flavors throughout, but then it kicks in, gives me an alcohol cough, then burns and burns on the way down. Better than I think I was expecting, given the intensity promised. And, certainly, it delivered on that intensity, without it just being intense and nothing else. This was the first of the KI NO BI gins that I've tried.

Tried it a second time, and, yeah, intense. Maybe unpleasant if I drink too much of it. Might be decent, if dilluted.

Jeanette - It delivers what it promises! Aroma: a little like spirit with herbs. Taste: very sharp alcohol taste but also very spicy like a classic gin. If you keep the gin on your tongue for longer, you get a rather unpleasant burning sensation. You can also feel this gin on its way to your stomach. But - the taste is classic and quite round. I think I like this gin - but it is definitely too strong for me to drink straight.
