Roku Gin Sakura Bloom Edition
Gin - 43 % - 70 cl
Inspired by the Hanami festival, which honors the fleeting beauty of cherry blossoms, this Roku Sakura Bloom Edition captures the essence of springtime in Japan.
Read moreOn the nose, this gin offers a bright and inviting fragrance that reflects the freshness of early spring. The aroma is delicate and floral, reminiscent of cherry blossoms, bringing to mind a Japanese garden in full bloom during Hanami. On the palate, it presents soft, subtly sweet, and elegantly rich top notes. There is a nostalgic hint of the slight saltiness of Sakura-mochi, a traditional seasonal sweet, perfectly balanced by the fruity sweetness of cherry blossoms. The finish is long and refined, with each floral note unfolding, leaving an anticipation of the next blossom.
This gin is crafted using a blend of six Japanese botanicals harvested at their peak, including Sakura flowers and leaves. The use of cherry blossoms brings a unique, floral character to the gin, complemented by the harmonious combination of traditional gin botanicals. The iconic hexagonal bottle design, with its relief of the six botanicals, is adorned with a washi paper label designed by the renowned Japanese artist Horiki Eriko, featuring soft pink tones and metallic accents that pay tribute to the falling petals of Sakura.
Roku Gin represents the art of Japanese craftsmanship, where each element is carefully selected and blended to create a gin that embodies the essence of Japanese nature. The Sakura Bloom Edition is a reflection of the Japanese appreciation for the seasons, making it an elegant and thoughtful gift or a personal indulgence to savor the beauty of spring.

The brand Suntory Spirits
In addition to whisky, Suntory also produces gin and vodka at a dedicated site: the Liquor Atelier, located in the city of Osaka, the historical birthplace where the company was founded in 1899.
For Suntory, the history of spirits production began in 1923 with whisky and the founding of Yamazaki, the first malt distillery in Japan. With this accumulated know-how in the art of distillation, Shiji Torii, the founder of the company, started to produce other foreign spirits with Hermes gin in 1936, and Hermes vodka in 1956.
