"Coffee Negroni Shake"
Freshly picked rooftop herbs "chocolate mint shake"
Popular craft gin "COFFEE ÉTHIQUE" using "coffee husks" (bean husks that remain after coffee is extracted). The coffee beans used are a collaboration with "LIGHT UP COFFEE", and the coffee husks born from the store sales of the coffee & gin stand "The Ethical Spirits & Coffee" opened in Otemachi in January this year. I am reusing it.
Coffee husks are usually discarded in stores, but the aroma remains so that you can clearly feel the individuality and difference of each bean. However, the problem with coffee husks is that there are still few effective ways to use them. In addition, many kraft gin made from coffee are made with “before extraction” powder or extract, or with deep roasted beans and are smoky, and are “single origin light roasted raw materials”. And the one with the shell is the first attempt as a coffee gin. For the raw sake, we use the local sake Hiraizumi's ginjo "Kasutori Shochu" from Akita Prefecture.
Since the type of coffee beans changes from batch to batch, it will be "ethical gin" where you can enjoy different flavors of coffee beans in the future. We won the Silver Award at the "IWSC 2022 (International Wine & Spirit Competition)", which is known as one of the prestigious competitions held in the United Kingdom.

“CACAO ÉTHIQUE”, an ethical gin that “recycles cocoa husks”, was classified by country in the gin category “World Gin Awards 2022” (WGA) of WWA, the most prestigious competition in the whiskey industry last year. Received "Silver".
For the raw sake, we use the local sake Hiraizumi's ginjo "Kasutori Shochu" from Akita Prefecture. The scent of pineapple, the taste reminiscent of bananas and caramel, the acidity and fragrance, and the best one for cacao were selected. For botanicals, we use "cacao husk" instead of "cacao nibs", which is a high-quality cacao with excellent flavor and aroma called specialty cacao from "Whosecacao", which is used in general cacao products.
Cacao husk is the skin part that is separated and discarded in the processing process of roasting cacao in normal chocolate making. I discovered that it goes very well with "distillation," which extracts aroma components. With a rich and balanced cacao flavor, it has become an "ethical gin" with fruity and herbal characteristics. It is recommended to drink it as orange blossom together with orange juice.

With the motto of "a distillation platform that realizes a circulating economy," we are a distillation venture that produces craft gin using waste materials and operates a regenerative distillery.
In March 2020, the lees produced at the end of the sake production process is redistilled to produce and sell craft gin, and from the profits, sake rice is provided to the brewery of the lees provider, and sake is re-distilled from there. Started the world's first cyclical "Esical Jin Project" to produce. Attention to the first ethical gin "LAST" is not only the production method, but also the highest award by country in the gin category "World Gin Awards 2021" of the whiskey industry and the most prestigious competition WWA. "IWSC 2021" won the highest award, GOLD OUTSTANDING, and has been highly evaluated as a gin, such as being the only Japanese to be selected as one of the top nine works in the world.
In January 2021, the world's first regenerative distillery "Tokyo Riverside Distillery" specializing in ethical production and consumption was built in front of Tokyo Kuramae. In June of the same year, he announced the challenge of commercializing and selling "WoodSpirits", the first private business operator based on the research results pioneered by the National Forest Research Institute. At the same time, raised 140 million yen. We plan to construct the next new regenerative distillery and expand overseas sales channels.
In January 2022, the first “The Ethical Spirits & Coffee” store, which offers craft gin and ethical sweets made from coffee bean husks, was opened in Otemachi, Tokyo.
With the mission of "Crafting the New Luxury," we aim to be a world-leading sustainable spirits brand.
