Yuzu

Yuzu (Citrus junos) in gin: tart, floral, between lemon and mandarin. Found in 6 gins on The Giniverse.

The signature citrus of Japanese gins.

Born in central China and unusually frost-hardy for a citrus. In Japan its zest and juice go into ponzu, and on the winter solstice whole yuzu are floated in the bath, a custom at least 300 years old.
