Gin Sonbi
  • Premium Korean-inspired dry gin produced by Tokki Soju in Rohnert Park, California
  • Distilled from 100% corn neutral spirit
  • 10 botanicals include juniper, Schisandra berries, Chinese licorice, grains of paradise, cassia, green cardamom, coriander, lemon peel, orris root, and angelica root
  • Juniper is macerated overnight; lemon peels are vapor distilled and the remaining botanicals are added to still during distillation
  • Distilled in a copper continuous column still
  • Rested 2 months before bottling
  • Juniper, sansho peppercorn, lime, and cinnamon on the nose lead to a citrusy palate with a perfect balance of spice and earthy botanical notes including licorice root, angelica, and green cardamom with a zesty finish of ginger and fresh lemon peel
  • 48% ABV

The familiar, juniper-forward qualities of a London Dry-style gin mingle with a Korean throughline nose to finish; Sonbi Gin is masterfully crafted for classic Western cocktails and as well as Asia’s booming contemporary mixology scene. Before you reach for Sonbi Gin for your next Martini or Negroni, try this shockingly drinkable gin neat!

"In this gin, Schisandra berries (a.k.a. the five-flavor berry) and grains of paradise complement an otherwise fairly typical botanical cast, though the producer macerates each one differently before continuous copper column distillation. S?nbi Gin markets itself as a London Dry gin with a Korean twist, and it instantly captivated us with its intense, perfumed bouquet that carries seamlessly onto the palate."
