About Roku Gin
You love gin and and new taste experiences? Then you should definitely have Roku Japanese Craft Gin in your (home) bar! This perfectly balanced gin is produced by The House of Suntory from Osaka, and inspires with its complex taste profile since 1936.
Eight classic gin ingredients meet the Japanese botanicals yuzu peel, sakura flower, sakura leaves, sencha tea, gyokuro tea and sansho pepper. They combine to create a complex and harmonious gin with a hint of cherry blossom and green tea; soft and velvety on the palate and with a slight spiciness on the finish.
In the recipe above, the sweet winter strawberries are the perfect complement for ROKU.
Japanese craftsmanship in the bottle design
In Japan, six is a lucky number. ROKU means “six” in Japanese. Therefore, Roku Gin is also all about luck with its unique, hexagonal shape and the six Japanese botanicals it contains! The Roku bottle was designed with the utmost care and bears the signature of Japanese craftsmanship: the hexagonal bottle shape indicates the perfect balance between the six botanicals.
The kanji symbol, which stands for the number six, is immortalized in golden elements on the label. The label itself is made from traditional Japanese “Washi” paper. In addition, the Japanese botanicals can be seen as an embossed print on the bottle glass.
