Roku Japanese Craft Gin 1L

Experience the exquisite craftsmanship of Suntory Roku Gin 1L, a premium gin that embodies the spirit of Japan. Created by the House of Suntory, renowned for its expertise in crafting fine spirits, Roku Gin stands out with its harmonious blend of six uniquely Japanese botanicals, each harvested at the peak of its season to capture the essence of Japanese nature.

Product History

Roku, meaning “six” in Japanese, refers to the six botanicals that define this gin: sakura flower, sakura leaf, yuzu peel, sencha tea, gyokuro tea, and sansho pepper. These botanicals are meticulously selected and blended with traditional gin botanicals such as juniper berries, coriander, angelica root, and cardamom to create a perfect balance. Suntory’s distilling heritage, dating back to 1899, is reflected in the exceptional quality and attention to detail found in every bottle of Roku Gin.
