We value and appreciate the World Gin Awards as well as our fellow participants and to take home a main category win for Vancouver Island from a prestigious European awards competition is unimaginable. We are grateful for the praise and spotlight.” The distillery releases their newest and latest spirit, Kazuki Gin this week to both hospitality and retail markets. Asian inspired, the Kazuki Gin blends East and West flavours and cultures, featuring cherry blossom petals and yuzu peel imported directed from Japan, and green tea leaves and flowers from Westholme Tea Farm in the Cowichan Valley. The name consists of two Japanese words, KAZU meaning harmony refers to the harmony of both the East and West cultures and flavours as well as the West and East of Vancouver Island where both Sooke and the Cowichan Valley are located. KI means radiance and refers to the radiant flavours that dance on the tongue due to these premium and exotic flavours. About Sheringham Distillery Ltd.
