Hanami is a cocktail inspired by the floral component of its own ingredients.
Blending the botanical of the japanese gin with the aroma of Italicus and almond, all brought up with our local ingredient "cava"
Thanks to the traditional method chamapagnoise of a second fermentation in the bottle, Cava develops light dryness and a light bitter almond flavours. Italicus rounds it up with its iconic floral citrus notes.
