The JIN7 Series 00 is a great gin from Japan's south and comes with 11 botanicals. These all come from Japan's oldest herb garden "Kaimon Sanroku" in Ibusuki, including ho leaf, rose geranium, mint and lemongrass. There is also Kagoshima's best-known tea variety, Chiran, and Ibusuki's popular Kito Yuzu. JIN7 is a beautiful symbiosis of citrus and herbal notes. It is bottled at 47% vol. and is very mild.

The producer of JIN7 is Oyama Jinshichi Shoten in Ibusuki in the far south of Kyushu. The small distillery has been producing the finest sweet potato shochu (imo), which forms the basis for JIN7, since 1875. The 11 botanicals used are: Juniper Berry, Rose Geranium, Rosemary, Lemongrass, Chiran Tea, Mint, Mexican Marigold, Black Pepper, Red Pepper, Kito Yuzu and Ho Leaf (also known as Asian Rosewood). Essential oils are usually extracted from the latter by steam distillation.

The bottle design of JIN7 is particularly elegant. While the neck of the bottle is decorated with wax and looks like a candle, a clothing label with the botanicals can be found on the bottle label. In order to found the distillery, Oyama Shoten sold his kimono business in 1875 in order to have the financial means to build the distillery. The label is a constant reminder of the company's roots.

JIN7 has an intense, aromatic taste, is mild and pleasant and can be enjoyed straight or as a gin and tonic (recommendation: a good Indian tonic or a botanical tonic). This gin is also perfect for cocktails, for example a martini cocktail or a gimlet.

The JIN 7 Series 00 is only produced once a year, and only in a limited edition of 3,500 to 4,000 bottles. This is because the herb garden is tiny and the herbs are only available in small quantities. The good news: Oyama produces other gins, namely the JIN7 Series 01, which comes up with other exciting botanicals. We also have the JIN7 Series 02 Sakura Cask Finish, a fantastic barrel-aged gin.

About the manufacturer

Oyama Jinshichi Shoten was founded in 1875 in Miyagahama, Ibusuki, Kagoshima Prefecture. Since then, the company has been producing the finest sweet potato shochus (imo). It is a small distillery that produces true craft products. Since 2019, the production facility has also been producing gin. The botanicals for this come from Japan's oldest herb garden "Kaimon Sanroku". Before 1875, the family owned a kimono store in addition to the distillery. This is why the labels on the JIN7 bottles feature clothing labels. With this, the producers always want to remember the family's historical roots.

In 2021, the management of the company was transferred to the then 30-year-old son Youhei Oyama, which is very rare in Japan at this young age. He is one of a group of young and extremely talented producers who break new ground and are keen to experiment. For example, Youhei-san produced the first rum from Kagoshima's mainland and also launched a craft cola shochu on the market.
