The gin is triple-distilled and double charcoal-filtered to ensure optimum purity, while the malted barley used to craft the brand's whiskey is used in the recipe to boot. The liquor is infused with a blend [six natural botanical extracts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/willoe-gin) including star fruit, kumquat and guava, which all help contribute to a [citrusy flavor and aroma](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/love-drinks-etsu-gin) that is distinctly aromatic and seductive. Speaking on the new Kavalan Gin, Kavalan CEO YT Lee explained, "We want to offer a new gin experience this new year. That’s why along with the traditional botanicals of juniper, aniseed and coriander, we are giving people a taste of Kavalan’s home in Yilan with kumquat peel, dried star fruit and red-flesh guava botanical extracts. Taiwan is the kingdom of fruits and Yilan itself is lush and wet, offering its own mouth-watering fruits.” ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 7% | Activity: 24% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Double-filtered Gins:** Gin brands can explore offering double-filtered varieties to ensure optimum purity and a unique taste experience. - **Natural Botanical Infusions:** Alcohol brands can incorporate different natural botanical infusions to create unique flavor profiles and stand out in a crowded market space. - **Locally Sourced Ingredients:** Brands can tap into locally sourced ingredients to showcase flavors unique to their region for a more authentic and memorable taste experience for consumers. ### Where This Applies - **Alcoholic Beverages:** The alcoholic beverage industry can leverage natural botanical infusions and locally sourced ingredients to create innovative and unique products that appeal to discerning consumers. - **Food and Beverage:** Restaurants and bars can expand their drink menus and offer unique double-filtered gins with natural botanical infusions and locally sourced ingredients to cater to the increasingly adventurous and sophisticated preferences of diners and drinkers. - **Tourism and Hospitality:** Hotels and resorts can tap into locally sourced ingredients to showcase the flavors and culture of the destination, and promote unique drink offerings to attract guests. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Triple Barrel-Aged Taiwanese Whiskeys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kavalan.md) - [Tropically Flavored Gin Spirits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tropically-flavored-gin.md) - [Blossoming Spirit Gift Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kavalan-2025-gift-sets.md) - [Flavorful Gin Innovations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ginuary.md) - [Ultra-Premium Small-Batch Gins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tulchan-gin.md) - [Sherry Cask-Aged Whisky Expressions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kavalan-distillery.md) - [Premium Japanese Botanical Gins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sasshu-craft-gin.md) - [Disruptive Craft Gins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vista-gin.md) - [Korean Botanical Gins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bok-gin.md)
