Roku Japanese Craft Gin Gift Pack with Merchant's Heart Spirit Enhancers, 70 cl

Product Information

For instance, the delicate scent of cherry blossom is drawn out through vacuum distillation in stainless pot stills, whereas the deep flavor of yuzu is achieved by distillation in copper pot stills. One of the most popular mixing gins, Roku Gin is bold and strikingly bitter – which makes it a rather challenging mixing gin. The dark glass frosted bottles are decorated with kanji script and floral illustrations, with this kit including a sample of its classic Japanese dry, matcha-infused and the disarmingly smooth navy strength varieties. Wrapped in beautiful floral-print packaging, this premium gin is infused with botanicals and distilled on a Hertfordshire farm.

Six Japanese botanicals cultivated over four seasons, carefully selected to create Roku, Japan’s authentic craft gin.

The design is distinctive and covered in mermaid tail scales, and while a full-size is gorgeous, the miniatures on offer this year are equally so. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, Roku is the prestigious gin that offers the best of every season. Favourites included Conker’s port barrel gin with its subtle, sweet spice and Ableforth's classic bathtub gin with big powerful botanicals and a creamy mouthfeel.

The chosen gins are all killer, no filler, with handpicked spirits from the likes of Kyro, Four Pillars and, our panel’s personal favourite, Conker Spirit Port Barrel, which is gold in the glass and full of bourbon-style spicing. This gift set includes three mini versions of the striking cut-glass bottles from The Isle of Wight Distillery. Each botanical has been harvested at the peak of its season to extract the best flavor, then distilled to fully embody the blessings of nature.

If you want to raise a toast to this year’s epic summer of sport, one of the tastier ways to do it is with a bottle of Japan’s Roku Gin. The Atelier owns four distinct types of pot stills and, in a process unique to Roku, the botanicals are distilled separately according to each feature of botanicals to extract the best flavour and maintain their individual characteristics.

Roku is produced in the Suntory Liqueur Atelier at Osaka Plant, a specialized craft distillery for Suntory spirits.
