For the perfect serve, fill a highball glass with ice, add 50ml of Roku Sakura Bloom Edition, and top with 150ml tonic water. Garnish with a slice of pink grapefruit. This Japanese craft gin from The House of Suntory captures the freshness of spring with delicate cherry blossom and a hint of saltiness from Sakura leaves.
Roku Gin is The House of Suntory's premium craft gin. The first expression within the Seasonal Festival Collection, Roku Sakura Bloom Edition builds on the quality and concept behind Roku Japanese Craft Gin: unique, authentically Japanese gin. It is inspired by one of the most celebrated Japanese festivals and one of Roku's key ingredients, the Sakura Flower (cherry blossom).
Crafted by Japanese artisans with meticulous attention to detail, Roku is a perfect balance of flavours. The gin's unique taste comes from six Japanese botanicals - Sakura flower, Sakura leaf, Yuzu peel, Sencha tea, Gyokuro tea and Sansho pepper. A complex multiple distillation process brings out the best in each. This gin is the true embodiment of 'Shun' where each botanical is harvested at its peak flavour, in this case highlighting one particular season - Spring. The Sakura Bloom Edition celebrates the annual Hanami flower viewing festivals in Japan. It captures the freshness and brightness of Springtime, bringing a soft and sweet floral taste, layered with hints of saltiness from the blossom leaves.
Tasting Notes: Roku is bright and inviting on the nose, evoking the freshness of early spring. Gentle and soft floral scents of cherry blossom, reminiscent of a Japanese garden, mingle with a fruity and sweet taste. A hint of salty Sakura-mochi, the traditional sweet of the season, perfectly complements Roku's original botanicals. A lingering finish invites the next sip.
Serve: Roku Sakura Bloom Edition is perfect for a gin and tonic. Simply fill a highball glass with ice, then add 50ml of Roku. Top with 150ml tonic water, then garnish with a slice of pink grapefruit as the final touch.
