Description

Roku Gin stands as a testament to Suntory’s pioneering spirit in crafting exceptional spirits, marking their debut into the gin world with a blend that harmonizes tradition and innovation. Derived from the Japanese word for “six,” Roku Gin integrates six traditional Japanese botanicals alongside classic gin ingredients to create a distinctly Japanese flavor profile that evolves with each sip.

At its core, Roku Gin is a symphony of flavors that reflects the essence of Japan’s four seasons. The botanical selection includes sakura flowers and leaves, imparting delicate floral notes reminiscent of springtime blooms. Yuzu peel adds a citrusy brightness, while sansho pepper brings a peppery, aromatic twist that unfolds gradually on the palate. Complementing these are sencha tea and gyokuro tea, contributing earthy tones that ground the gin with a nod to Japan’s rich tea culture.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, Roku Gin begins with a base of pure, soft water sourced from the famous Fushimi region, renowned for its pristine water quality ideal for brewing and distillation. This water serves as the canvas upon which the botanicals are masterfully layered, ensuring each element retains its distinct character while harmonizing seamlessly with the juniper, lemon peel, orange peel, and cinnamon that round out the gin’s profile.

Ideal for both gin enthusiasts and those new to the spirit, Roku Gin invites exploration and appreciation with its balanced complexity. Enjoy it in a classic gin and tonic to experience its nuanced flavors, or explore its versatility in cocktails where its Japanese botanicals can shine uniquely.

Discover Roku Gin and embark on a sensory journey through Japan’s seasons, where each botanical tells a story of tradition, innovation, and the natural beauty that defines Suntory’s commitment to excellence in spirits.
