A Deeper Expression of Japanese Craft
From the House of Suntory, the masters of Japanese craft, comes the Roku Gin Botanical Kasane Edition. This "Kasane" (meaning "to layer") edition is a sophisticated re-imagining of the classic Roku Gin, designed exclusively for the discerning traveler.
This expression embodies the Japanese art of perfect layering. The six signature Japanese botanicals that define Roku - Sakura flower, Sakura leaf, Sencha tea, Gyokuro tea, Sansho pepper, and Yuzu - are each harvested at their peak season ("shun"). In this Kasane Edition, these botanicals are enhanced and layered, creating a harmonious blend with a much richer and deeper flavor profile.
Tasting Experience
Nose: A complex, rich aroma of layered Japanese botanicals rises from the glass, carrying a delicate hint of sweetness.
Palate: The flavors gracefully unfold on the palate. You'll experience a beautiful harmony of sweet and floral notes from the Sakura, fresh green vibrancy from the premium teas, a subtle, refreshing spice from the Sansho, and a bright, complementary citrus. The texture is exceptionally smooth and rich.
Finish: A vibrant and delightful finish that lingers on the palate - remarkably smooth, mild, and enduring.
