Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a Japanese flavored gin that leads with strawberry and keeps the juniper in the picture, which is harder to pull off than it sounds. The nose opens on fresh strawberries wrapped in botanicals. The palate starts sweet and berry-rich, then the crispness of gin and its classic juniper arrive to add depth, and the finish settles into earthy juniper and a medley of botanicals. At 44% ABV (88 proof), it has enough backbone to stand up in a Negroni or a Collins rather than vanishing under citrus and soda. It suits the drinker who wants a fruit-forward gin without giving up on gin itself, and it is a friendly bridge for guests who usually find juniper too austere. The name Awayuki translates to "early snowfall," a nod to how refreshing it is meant to feel. We carry it because it earns a place on a spritz-and-Martini shelf and still rewards a chilled pour sipped neat.
Pairs well with
- Strawberry shortcake — The gin's fresh strawberry and gentle sweetness echo the dessert while juniper keeps the pairing from turning cloying.
- Goat cheese and berry salad — Tangy cheese and greens play against the red berry fruit, and the earthy juniper finish ties into the savory side of the plate.
- Summer garden party spritzes — Topped with prosecco or sparkling water and a strawberry slice, its bright berry and floral notes make an easy, light crowd-pleaser.
