Suntory Roku Gin 750ml

Suntory Roku Gin 750ml is an exquisite expression of Japanese craftsmanship, blending six unique botanicals harvested at the peak of their seasons. Produced by the renowned House of Suntory, this gin captures the essence of Japan’s four seasons and offers a refined and balanced flavor profile.

Craftsmanship:

• Japanese Botanicals: Roku Gin features six distinctly Japanese botanicals: sakura flower, sakura leaf, sencha tea, gyokuro tea, sansho pepper, and yuzu peel, each contributing to its complex and nuanced character.

• Traditional and Modern Distillation: Combining traditional gin botanicals like juniper, coriander, and angelica with the unique Japanese botanicals, Suntory employs both pot stills and continuous stills to create a gin that is both rich in tradition and contemporary in flavor.

Tasting Notes:

• Appearance: Clear and pristine, reflecting its purity and quality.

• Aromas: Delicate floral notes of cherry blossom (sakura) and green tea blend with hints of citrus from yuzu peel, creating a fresh and inviting bouquet.

• Palate: Smooth and complex, with the yuzu’s citrus brightness up front, followed by the herbal depth of sencha and gyokuro teas. Juniper and spice from sansho pepper provide a balanced and lingering warmth.

• Finish: Clean and crisp, with a subtle peppery aftertaste and a final hint of the floral sakura, leaving a refreshing and lasting impression.
