A journey through the four seasons with six Japanese botanicals.
In Japanese, Roku translates as the number six. Inside every bottle of
Roku Gin, you will find six very special botanicals that are sourced in
Japan. These represent Suntory’s commitment to only use the best
ingredients harvested from the best growing areas in Japan. Every aspect
of Roku Gin is crafted by Japanese artisans with a centuries-old
tradition of meticulous attention to detail.
Not only are Roku Gin’s ingredients of the highest quality, many are
also uniquely Japanese and, therefore, best understood by Japanese
artisans. Suntory’s mastery of this process is the result of extensive
experience gained over decades making gin. Suntory developed its own
multiple distillation process as a result of the special features each
botanical brings to Roku Gin’s perfectly balanced mix.
Tasting Notes
Nose : Cherry blossom and green tea provide a floral and sweet aroma.
Palate : Complex, multi layered, yet harmonious flavour of various botanicals. Traditional gin taste in the
base, plus characteristic Japanese botanical notes with yuzu as the top note. Smooth and silky texture.
Finish : The crisp Japanese sansho pepper brings a little spiciness to the finish.
