A Dutch Dry Gin finds Japanese serenity.

In Japan, they love to watch the cherry blossoms fall. This phenomenon signifies a rebirth of sort and the serenity of a simple and joyful life. It’s a very special event that millions attend every year. Inspired by this concept, the P. Melchers Distillery back in the Netherlands, they were they felt their already impressive portfolio could use a Gin that would embody this celebration of life. Founded in 1837 by the Melchers family, their range includes Whisky, Vodka, Brandy, Rum, Liqueurs and Creams. With Rembrandt Vodka, Dry Gin, Light & Dry White Rum and Golden Dark Rum.

Hanami literally means "lower viewing" in Japanese. Hanami Dry Gin is based on the original, time-honored Dutch Dry Gin recipe. It’s then infused with the essence of cherry blossom and hand-picked botanicals – only nobody knows which ones as the list is part of a closely guarded recipe. Bottled at 86 proof, Hanami Gin is a super-premium expression that will bring serenity and balance to any cocktail. Maybe try somethings different this time instead of the good ol’ G&T, like the Hanami Sling – a new take on the Singapore Sling.

Few Gin distillers make their own alcohol. Gin usually starts with neutral Spirit: A commodity that distillers buy in bulk. It’s what the distiller does with this commodity in the flavor-infusing process that makes each Gin different.
While juniper-heavy Gin is perfect for your daily G&T, it is also complemented extremely well by tea flavours such as Earl Grey. Try steeping Earl Grey tea bags in Gin for an hour before mixing it with lemon juice and soda for a refreshing tipple. This one gets you additional kudos, so let’s keep it between us.
It’s a common myth that Gin is a tear-jerker. Of course, drinking too much of it will make you feel awful the next day, but that’s the same with any alcohol.
Gin gets its dominant flavour from juniper berries. As with many other spirits, Gin was originally intended to be used as medicine. Yeah right!
London Dry Gin is not always from London. Gin does not have the same geographical restrictions as Spirits such as Cognac, Scotch, or Tequila. Only a tiny handful of London Dry Gins are actually made in the city.
As with many other Spirits, Gin was originally intended to be used as a medicine—to battle malaria.
