Etsu Sakura

A handcrafted gin, Etsu Sakura celebrates the Japanese tradition of Hanami, symbolizing the fleeting beauty of cherry blossoms.

This limited edition also stands out with its unique bottle, featuring a hand-blown glass geisha, making each bottle a true work of art and a rare collector’s item.

A true homage to Japanese culture, Etsu Sakura is best enjoyed in cocktails or with tonic.
