ROKU | Japanese Craft Gin | 43%

Come alive with the seasons of Japan with every sip of Roku gin. In Japan, Roku means "the number six", and each bottle is infused with six unique Japanese botanicals that ripen throughout the year. The fresh and clean aroma of Roku gin flows in to flavors of floral cherry blossom (sakura) and earthy sencha (green tea). The best way to serve is in a Japanese twist on the classic G&T. Pour over ice and top up with tonic water. Garnish with thin slices of ginger to bring out the gin's unique herbal and citrus notes. Roku gin celebrates all four seasons of Japan, and its botanicals are carefully harvested at the peak of their season--the "shun". Sakura leaves and flowers are handpicked in spring, with Sencha and Gyokuro teas being plucked in summer. In fall it's time for the spicy Sansho pepper, and the zingy Yuzu fruit bursts into ripeness in winter. They are captured, distilled and blended harmoniously in each bottle so drinkers can experience a year in Japan with every sip. Roku gin is a celebration of the bounty of nature and careful craftsmanship, drawing upon more than a century of distilling experience and expertise.

Roku is Japanese for the number six, and each bottle of Roku gin is infused with six special botanicals. Each one is sourced in Japan, at the peak of its season.

Drawing upon a hundred years of craftsmanship, this craft gin is alive with the seasons of Japan.
