Cherrapunji Eastern Craft Gin has released its newest expression, Mountain Berry Gin with Cherry Blossom. What makes its special is that it is distilled from rainwater and built on unsweetened, uncoloured foundation based on the character from the high-altitude terrains of Cherrapunji and Mawsynram.
The makers have shaped the profile by an interplay of cherry blossom petals and the sweet-tart Khasi Sohiong berry, which together create a natural pink hue. The gin doesn’t include any sweeteners, colouring or additives – making it a natural product from its place of origin.
The botanical includes Sohiong berries (Meghalayan mountain berries), Cherry blossom petals, Taro root, Chamomile, Eastern Himalayan juniper berries, Khasi mandarin and Kaji Nemu.
The gin can be enjoyed with ice or lengthened with tonic or soda and the gin is expected to taste:
Palette: lush, silken, sweet-tart
Nose: floral, citrus, juniper
Finish: lingering, floral, berry-led
The gin is also paired with a integrated pour-measuring cap — a patent-applied jigger mechanism built into the bottle to ensure precision with every serve. The packaging continues the brand’s stainless-steel architecture, with selectively applied deep-gold embossing that behaves like metalwork rather than decoration. The result is a form that advances the original design language while remaining unmistakably itself.
