Yomeishu Seizo

Yomeishu Seizo, here is a house which certainly does not evoke anything for you, and which however is immensely known in Japan. Their "Yomeishu Komagane" factory is located in the heart of the Japanese Alps, located on a rocky plateau where the air is pure and the water of excellent quality, very soft water because it is slowly filtered through the granite rock of the surrounding mountains. Its history dates back to the very beginning of the 17th century, in 1602 exactly, in the prefecture of Nagano.
It was on this date that the factory marketed for the first time a medicinal liqueur based on the use of plants, and in particular a local shrub called "Kuromoji". The first brand registered under the Tokugawa Shogunate, the "Yomeishu" liqueur saw its reputation gradually spread throughout Japan, making Yomeishu Seizo, four centuries later, the undisputed leader for this type of product. Yomeishu medicinal liquor is made from 14 kinds of plants. It is the emblematic product of Yomeshu Seizo, a 400-year-old success and a promise: to improve blood circulation and metabolism.
If Yomeishu's reputation is well established in the field of medicinal liqueurs, it is a great challenge that it takes up here: relying on its expertise in the botanical formulation and use of Kuromoji to undertake the production of spirits. And it is quite logical that its first products are gins, thus following a very real trend in Japan, as everywhere else. The fact remains that we have here some incredibly original and really qualitative products that we are happy to present to you for the first time in France: Kanoshizuku and Kanomori gins.
