White Champaca: The Flower Behind Hong Kong Gin | 白蘭花:香港琴酒背後的花朵

The white champaca blossom is the soul of Perfume Trees Gin. Known in Cantonese as 白蘭花 (baak laan fa), this fragrant flower holds a special place in Hong Kong's collective memory. For decades, elderly women sold these blossoms at MTR stations and street corners, their sweet perfume filling the humid air. Today, this tradition has largely faded, but the memory lives on in every bottle of Perfume Trees Gin from Tankyu Distillery.


White champaca belongs to the magnolia family and is prized for its intensely sweet, creamy floral aroma. In perfumery, it is considered one of the most exquisite natural scents. In Perfume Trees Gin, white champaca provides the distinctive floral top note that sets this Hong Kong craft gin apart from any other in the world.


The champaca blossom works in harmony with the other signature botanicals: aged tangerine peel adds citrus depth, longjing green tea brings freshness, Chinese angelica contributes warmth, and Indian sandalwood provides an earthy base. Together, these Asian botanicals tell the story of Hong Kong in a bottle. Experience this unique gin at perfumetreesgin.com.

白蘭花是白蘭樹下琴酒的靈魂。白蘭花在香港人的集體記憶中佔有特殊地位。數十年來,老婦人在港鐵站和街角售賣這些花朵,甜美的芬芳充滿潮濕的空氣。如今,這個傳統已漸漸消逝,但這份記憶活在丹丘蒸留所每一瓶白蘭樹下琴酒之中。


白蘭花屬於木蘭科,以其濃郁甜美的奶油花香而珍貴。在香水界,它被視為最精緻的天然香氣之一。在白蘭樹下琴酒中,白蘭花提供了獨特的花香頂調,使這款香港手工琴酒與世界上任何其他琴酒截然不同。


白蘭花與其他標誌性植物原料和諧共融:陳皮增添柑橘深度,龍井綠茶帶來清新,當歸貢獻溫暖,印度檀香木提供大地基調。這些亞洲植物原料共同訴說香港的故事。在 perfumetreesgin.com 體驗這款獨特琴酒。
