【Exhibited items】
●THE HERBALIST YASO GIN
The scent is inspired by “imaginary fruits that grow in the forest.” It is a mysterious fruit that has a fresh, fruity, sweet scent with a touch of spice, giving it an oriental feel. By adding the scent of plants to it, a herbal and refreshing scent will reach your nose, reminiscent of a forest. “TWSC2023 (Tokyo Whiskey & Spirits Competition) Gold Award Winner”
●THE HERBALIST YASO GIN ORANGE
We use plenty of two types of orange peel: the sour and juicy Valencia orange and the sweet and fragrant navel orange to create a highly fragrant product.
Furthermore, by adding spices such as fennel, cloves, allspice, and celery seed that bring out the aroma of orange, the result is not only a fruity flavor, but also a firm and delicious taste typical of gin.

●THE HERBALIST YASO GIN LEMON
A refreshing and herbal gin with a clear sweet and sour lemon scent that makes you feel like you’re in a lemon field.
When you put it in your mouth, you can smell the bitterness of lemon and spices, and the soft sweetness of juniper berries.
●THE HERBALIST YASO Absinthe Prototype 03
An alcoholic beverage made by distilling YASO SPIRITS, which is made from wildflowers such as mugwort, anise, and star anise, and infusing absinthe with fresh spearmint, shiso leaves, and rosemary.
Not only does it have a fresh and refreshing scent, but the liquid also has a natural color derived from plant ingredients. We have improved the change to milky white and achieved an ideal start-up.
