Japanese craft gin using a total of 14 kinds of ingredients, mainly six Japanese ingredients born from the four seasons of Japan. Suntory's Japanese craft gin "ROKU (Six)" is a domestically produced premium gin made by Japanese artisans who pursue balance with delicate craftsmanship. The botanicals are harvested in their respective seasons and distilled using methods that match the characteristics of the ingredients, bringing out the aroma of cherry blossoms, the refreshing flavor of yuzu and tea, and the spiciness of sansho in the aftertaste. こだわり of Japanese Craft Gin ROKU (Six) 【Botanicals】Cherry blossoms, cherry leaves, sencha, gyokuro, sansho, yuzu. ROKU, which aims to be a representative Japanese craft gin, has selected six Japanese botanicals nurtured by the rich seasons of Japan. To make the most of nature's bounty, each is harvested and distilled in its respective season. The flavors of the four seasons overlap to create the aroma of ROKU. 【The 100-year-old passion contained in ROKU】In 1899, Suntory's predecessor, Torii Shoten, was founded with the desire to "create Western liquor that would be enjoyed by people around the world, made by Japanese hands." Overcoming many hardships, they made their dreams a reality, one after another, including wine, whiskey, and brandy. In 1936, they released "HERMES GIN," Suntory's first gin. 【Japanese craftsmanship that realizes ROKU's rich aroma】The "Liqueur Workshop" is Suntory's craft distillery specializing in spirits and liqueurs. The workshop has four different types of stills. Stainless steel vacuum distillation is used to extract delicate aromas like cherry blossoms, and copper pot atmospheric distillation is used to bring out the deep flavors of yuzu. Distillation is performed separately, according to the characteristics of each botanical. 【Bottle design embodying Japanese aesthetics】The hexagonal bottle shape that symbolizes ROKU is engraved with the six botanicals nurtured by Japanese nature. The bottle is wrapped in Japanese paper that expresses Japanese techniques and emotions. There, powerful calligraphy that conveys a sense of ambition runs briskly. 【Alcohol content】47% 【Number of bottles/Capacity】1 bottle/700ml Type of beverage: Other
