Ploom X and Red Cherry Distillery team up again to create customizable craft gin: A unique blend of technology, design, and botanicals that allow you to express your individuality through color, taste, and aroma.

The second collaboration between JT’s Ploom X heated cigarette device and the Hokkaido Red Cherry Distillery is a “hands-on” craft gin that you can customize and complete with your own hands.

The second collaboration between Ploom X and Red Cherry Distillery features a customizable formula! Craft gins that allow you to express your individuality through color, taste, and aroma

Ploom X is a next-generation heated cigarette device that pursues the pleasure of smoking. Based on the concept of “TRULY UNIQUE” and respecting the individuality of each person, Ploom X offers a high-quality and unique experience by focusing on the heating technology, design, and blending of each tobacco stick. In addition, based on the concept of “a free world, free ideas, and free values,” the Red Cherry Distillery is the first distillery in Hokkaido to produce craft gin in small quantities and with a particular manufacturing process. The design of the second collaboration craft gin seems to embody the philosophy of both distilleries.

The new collaboration product allows users to customize the botanicals used to make the craft gin to their liking and express their individuality as part of the gin’s creator. By infusing the gin with carefully selected unique botanicals as a matter of curiosity, visitors can enjoy the process of mixing the look, aroma, and taste of the gin. The marriage of craft gin and Mobius’ rich flavor, colored by the original distribution, is sure to be a special experience not found in everyday life.

What are the characteristics of the two original craft gins developed in pursuit of a marriage with Mobius?

In this collaboration, original craft gin was developed for each of the two types of sticks, Mobius Rich and Mobius Menthol Cold. The new products are designed to be enjoyed not only with the senses of taste and smell, but also with the senses of sight and touch.

Spicy, punchy, high-alcohol, goes well with Mobius Rich! ” #0715 Smoky Rich Base “

The “#0715 Smoky Rich Base” is a craft gin created to match the “Mobius Rich,” which is characterized by the deep, rich flavor of tobacco leaf. Finished dry and high in alcohol, #0715 is based on 9148, a famous craft gin from the Red Cherry Distillery, and is characterized by the addition of wood chips, which are usually applied to whiskey, and the smoky aroma that results. In addition to the wood aroma, the bitterness of the gin, which is blended with coconut, nutmeg, and juniper berries, matches extremely well with the mellow flavor of Mobius Rich.

The best part of this collaborative gin is that you can customize it by soaking it with your favorite amount of optional botanicals, such as butterfly peas for bright color, chili peppers for spiciness, pink pepper, cardamom, and octagon for a mature accent, using #0715 as a base.

Butterfly Pea is a natural litmus test! The best part is that you can enjoy the color changing sama by splitting things!

The color extracted from butterfly peas, also known as a natural litmus test, changes from a bright blue-purple to a slightly reddish purple when mixed with acidic liquids. For example, if #0715 is mixed with a carbonated beverage such as tonic water, it will have a different appearance than when served straight or on the rocks. It is a craft gin that can be enjoyed not only for its flavor and aroma, but also visually.

Sweet mint flavor complements the refreshing taste of Mobius Menthol Cold ” #0616 Mint Cold Base

Made to match Mobius Menthol Cold is #0616 Mint Cold Base, which adds peppermint, juniper berry, lemongrass, and cacao nibs to the base 9184 to intensify the coolness appropriate for menthol cigarettes. This craft gin offers a refreshing marriage of the sharp, ice-cold menthol flavor of Mobius Menthol Cold and the sweet mint flavor.

This one is packaged with botanicals such as apricot and orange for sweetening, icing sugar for changing not only the sweetness but also the texture, and lemongrass and cinnamon for flavoring, allowing you to customize the taste and aroma to your liking, just as with #0715. Both #0715 and #0616 are basically meant to be consumed within one week of soaking in the botanicals, but it is also possible to leave some of the botanicals in the bottle and add sweetness midway through to change the flavor.

Enjoying Ploom X and craft gin gracefully while watching the silver dust shimmer and dance in the bottle is also a treat.

The #0616 also offers visual enjoyment. This one is designed to enjoy the beautiful reflection of light from the silver powder, not the color. By turning the bottle upside down and letting the silver dust dance around, you can make the elegant experience of enjoying Plum X and craft gin even richer.
