Distillation and production
Production method
Small batches distilled in copper pot stills. The India Dry Gin uses a rice‑based neutral spirit; the Darjeeling variant employs FTGFOP1 tea from single estates for each batch. Distillation is reported to take place in Uttarakhand (Kashipur), following an initial production phase in Goa.
Distillation
Pot still distillation (copper pot still) in small batches.
Producer history Jin Jii
Jin Jii originated as a Peak Spirits project with the involvement, among others, of Ansh Khanna and sommelier Ken Fredrickson. The brand was launched on international markets and later introduced in India; production was initially carried out in Goa and more recently distillation was moved to a new facility in Kashipur, Uttarakhand.
Production philosophy
The brand's approach is an exploration of India's different botanical regions: using distinctive local ingredients to tell terroir and tradition, combining typical herbs (such as tulsi and chamomile) with unique elements like Darjeeling tea.
Territory
India (distillation in Uttarakhand; production origins linked to Goa). Botanicals and raw materials are collected or selected across various Indian regions.
