Roku Gin Bottling Note

The first gin from Japan's legendary Suntory - Roku Gin. This expression is made using a selection of botanicals, including six Japanese botanicals that provide a whistle-stop tour of the four seasons. These include sakura leaf and sakura flower for spring, sencha tea and gyokuro tea for summer, sansho pepper for autumn and yuzu peel for winter. Traditional gin botanicals also featured include the likes of juniper, orange peel, lemon peel, coriander and cinnamon, among others.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Earthy and vegetal, with a light whisper of fruity sweetness hiding underneath. Peppery notes develop on the finish.

Roku Gin Reviews

Nicely refreshing with a twist

Love it change from all the sweet flavours that have appeared lately. Tastes like a proper gin and not an alcho pop love the delicate peppery undertones

Harsh, Biting, Empty

Suntory's frst gin, eh? Encore! And keep doing it until you get it right. All I detected with this was a nondescript bouquet of chemical essence and a harsh flavour of pure alcohol that could only be tamed with the amount of ice a polar bear could live on. To me, a gin is genuinely bad if I'd rather be drinking Gordon's, and Roku certainly fits that label.

Fab!

Amazing Gin!
Love it the taste is fantastic !

12th April 2019

One of the best gins for me

Great gin and even better with Fentimans oriental yuzu tonic

13th March 2019

Very nice Gin!

A VERY nice gin! I never tried much other than Gilbay's gin... and lately Tanqueray no10, who was an eyeopener to the world of wonderful gin, tried Raku gin yesterday...and wow!!! A big MUST HAVE!!!

The perfect gin

Aromatic, uniquely spiced and smooth. Two years of exploring different gin, and this one’s in my top 3. Can’t get over how good it smells + tastes.

2nd February 2019

Perfect!

Probably the best gin I've tasted, which has a unique flavour. Perfection.

27th January 2019

Clean and crisp

Beautiful dry crisp non fussy gin, perfect!

29th December 2018

Masterful distilling.

Suntory first distilled gin in 1936. Their experience is enhanced by the delightful addition of the six delicate flavours. They add a sweet aftertaste.

27th December 2018

Nice little tipple

Thoroughly enjoyed.

4th December 2018

Great

Pleasing aroma, goes down smooth and warms up well.

20th November 2018

Sipping gin

Kept in the ice box and then sipped from an iced glass. Sublime. Some other flavors here that take it to another level. Suggest adding dash of water and some orange bitters. Tonic water will smother it in a G'n'T.

4th November 2018

Perfection.

Absolute perfection. Best gin I’ve ever had. Sancho pepper is a great addition.

22nd October 2018

Perfection

Absolute perfection. Nothing lacking. I thing needed. Just a perfect gin.

22nd October 2018

🇯🇵 perfection

Liquid Trix cereal in a bottle! Very good. SMOOOOOTH! :)

19th October 2018

Picked up a bottle at Tokyo airport as a gift for my wife. Delighted with the aromatic surprise of a first rate Gin - outstanding

Wonderful flavours and finish. Perfect with red berries

5th October 2018

Amazing gin!

Very smooth and delicious. Even hubby who's not that into gin enjoys this one. Initially bought it because of the beautiful and luxurious bottle but will buy again for the taste!

2nd October 2018

Outstanding

One of my favourites in fact I can't think of a better one. Even delicious neat.

P.s. I'm not a big fan of fever tree, I prefer gin with the good old fashion Schweppes.

29th September 2018

Works well with ginger ale

Really lovely original citrus taste to this Gin. Makes it stand out from the crowded market.

1st September 2018

My favorite

It's the best. A beautiful gin with gorgeous flavour. Great with Fevertree tonic

14th August 2018

Delightful surprise on the palate!

Tried this at the pump house in Bristol, fabulous gin! I was so pleased to see it at Waitrose. Superbly simple, not too floral (although I do like some floral gins too). Absolutely lip smackingly delicious. Expensive but worth it! Don’t hesitate, buy yourself a bottle, kick back and enjoy...

4th August 2018

Wow

First time, love it

23rd July 2018

Beautiful notes of Sencha

Sakura floral and citrus at the start (although wasn't distinctly Yuzu). What struck me the most were the distinct Sencha finish.

Beautiful with tonic

1st June 2018

Very Drinkable

Also bought on a whim much like another reviewer. I can say that for a Gin with such a complex flavour profile it is very drinkable. Strong citrus notes. Doesn't feel overly complicated, and perfect for a sunny afternoon.

19th May 2018

Excellent First Effort

Tried for first time. As a mixer used a "Japanese" tonic water (available in UK) . A really excellent effort by Suntory, strong citrus on initial taste (Yuzu) and a lovely refreshing peppery finish. Could be a "go to" gin for mixing, but will of course need to do a lot more taste testing

25th April 2018

Wow! Love this!

Bought this on a whim at Birmingham airport (duty free). I don’t usually drink straight gins, normally opting for a compound gin like Bathtub or a strong peppery flavour like Pink Pepper. However, I wish I could get hold of this in the UK as it is fantastic. I still prefer the aforementioned but I have to say it is better than most gins you can buy, even (dare I say it) Silent Pool which is my wife’s personal favourite (I love it too). Try it at least - I doubt you’ll regret it.
