Jinzu Gin 41,3% Vol. 0,7l

Jinzu gin was created by British bartender Dee Davies, inspired by her journey to Japan and a lifelong passion for experimenting with flavour. Davies had the opportunity to develop the drink after winning the Diageo’s ‘Show your Spirit’ competition in 2013. The competition aimed to build on the bartender’s experience, unlocking their creativity and potential to co-create a new, innovative product.
