Distilled and blended by the artisans of Suntory Spirits in Osaka, each botanical in Roku gin is a celebration of the season it thrives in — from summery sencha and gyokuro teas to the springtime sakura flower and leaf.

Sansho pepper adds a unique autumnal flavour, while the peel of the yuzu fruit represents winter. The result is a complex yet harmonious gin with a silky texture. Roku can be enjoyed on the rocks or in a Japanese G&T (served with ice and slices of fresh ginger). If you’re feeling adventurous, why not try a Roku negroni?

Available at most major retailers and select liquor stores for about R299 per bottle.
