Roku Gin Sakura Bloom Edition

The Japanese Craft Gin.

This Sakura Bloom Edition gin is instantly recognisable in its unique hexagonal House of Santory gin bottle, but now decorated with a label with a pink hue reflecting a Japanese spring.

“Roku” means six in Japanese and refers to its six unique Japanese botanicals (sakura flower, sakura leaf, sencha tea, gyokuro tea, sansho pepper, yuzu peel) blended with traditional gin botanicals.

Delicate floral and slightly salty notes

Sakura flower and sakura leaf are integral to this gin. Both are harvested at the peak of freshness. The use of sakura offers a different profile and a subtle change to the regular Santory gin. This edition presents delicate floral and slightly salty notes with hints of sweetness.

Roku Gin Sakura Bloom Edition is smooth and light and ideal for a good G and T. Choose a neutral tonic or the subtlety of the gin will be masked. Garnish with a fresh red cherry or a cherry blossom if you are lucky enough to find some; failing that then a simple twist of lemon. It’s best served well chilled with plenty of ice.
