Roku Japanese Craft Gin

Tiffany Nguyen — A Japanese Masterwork

10/10

Roku is a masterpiece of Japanese craft. Six seasonal botanicals — sakura, yuzu, sencha, gyokuro, sansho, sakura leaf — each perfectly captured and harmonised with juniper at 43%. The medium evolving finish is pure poetry. The finest Japanese gin available.

Marco Andretti — The Sansho Tingle

8/10

That lingering sansho tingle on the finish is what keeps me coming back. It's such a unique sensation — numbing, tingling, alive. The yuzu brightness and sakura florals are gorgeous too. At 43% ABV it's perfectly balanced.

Priscilla Nunes — Umami in a Gin

9/10

The gyokuro tea adds an extraordinary umami richness to the mid-palate. Combined with bright yuzu, tingling sansho pepper, and echoing sakura florals, Roku creates a drinking experience unlike any Western gin. Perfect at 43%.
