Surrounded by Niseko-Annupuri National Park and the Mount Yotei Natural Park, Niseko is widely known as a world-class ski resort, attracting visitors from all over in search of high-quality snow. Niseko is also blessed with soft water, which is unique to an area with heavy snowfall, and is known for its exceptional produce, a result of its location in a region of Hokkaido, where the temperature is relatively stable.

Tasting Notes
Ohoro means “to continue” in the language of the Ainu, the indigenous people of Hokkaido. Niseko Distillery hopes the gin crafted in Niseko, Hokkaido, will be enjoyed by many for generations to come. Made using Hokkaido-grown sweet gale and Japanese mint as the botanicals and the high-quality subterranean water (soft water) of Niseko Annupuri. The result is a clear, smooth, yet robust flavor with a light citrus aroma that makes an excellent base for cocktails. Absolutely sublime neat, with beautiful nuances of yuzu, chamomile, and coriander. Recommended for Gin & Tonic, White Lady, Gimlet, and Martini cocktails.
