Established in 2015 by David Croll and Marcin Miller in southern Kyoto, the production team separates 11 botanicals into six categories (base, citrus, tea, herbal, spice, and floral) to be distilled individually at their peak. The final blend, crafted by their head distiller, draws from sake and whisky philosophies to create an incomparable style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style='background-color: #f9f9f9; padding: 15px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 20px 0;'\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExplore more Gin:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href='https:\/\/alcoholpleasehk.com\/en\/collections\/gin' title='Shop All Gin' style='text-decoration: underline;'\u003eBrowse the full Alcohol Please Gin Collection\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdetails style='margin-top: 20px; cursor: pointer;'\u003e\u003csummary style='font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 10px;'\u003eRead More Brand Story\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eFounded in 2015, The Kyoto Distillery is Japan's first dedicated craft gin distillery, revolutionizing the global market. Head distiller Alex Davies, who trained in Scotland, combines Western distilling techniques with Japan's meticulous attention to detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKi No Bi’s uniqueness lies in its 'six-element' distillation process. Instead of one pot, botanicals are grouped by characteristics and extracted individually in specialized stills—for instance, yuzu is distilled under reduced pressure in stainless steel for freshness, while hinoki is copper-pot distilled for warmth. This ensures every element is captured at its peak before precision blending. Ki No Bi is not just a gin; it is a love letter to the four seasons of Kyoto.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e","brand":"The Kyoto Distillery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52202127982894,"sku":"Ki No Bi","price":520.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/9975\/8260\/files\/kyoto-dry-gin-ki-no-bi-457-750ml-gin-1887786.jpg?v=1781595198","url":"https:\/\/alcoholpleasehk.com\/en\/products\/kyoto-dry-gin-ki-no-bi-45-7-750ml","provider":"Alcohol Please","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
