Set 135 East Hyogo + Ukiyo + Roku
Roku Japanese Craft Gin is a craft gin produced by Suntory in Japan. The name "Roku" (which means six in Japanese) symbolizes six unique Japanese botanicals that form its base. Each of these ingredients is harvested in the season when it reaches its peak freshness, corresponding to the Japanese concept of "Shun" – celebrating seasonal flavors and nature.
Roku is the first gin from the world-renowned Suntory distillery. It is made from botanicals, including specific types of plants that only grow in Japan. Among them are sakura leaf and flower, sencha, gyokuro, sansho, and yuzu.
These herbs showcase all four seasons in Japan. In the aroma and taste of the gin, you will certainly notice hints of ginkgo, juniper, orange peel, cinnamon, and coriander.
The bottle of Roku Gin reflects Japanese aesthetic values – it has a hexagonal shape that symbolizes the six botanicals, and the label is made from traditional Japanese washi paper. This gin is perfect for mixing in cocktails or enjoying with tonic and a slice of ginger.
135° East Hyogo Dry Gin is a gin that transcends the boundaries of ordinary things, delivering a unique tasting experience in the style of Hyogo. In addition to the traditional 50 botanicals used to produce dry British gin, 135° East also includes a blend of 5 Japanese botanicals carefully selected by distilling expert Kimio Yonezawa.
This gin is named after the 135th degree of east longitude, which runs directly through the city of Akashi, where this gin is produced. The city has served as a reference point for determining the standard Japanese time zone since 1888.
The classic gin Ukiyo Tokyo Dry was born in Kagoshima, in the shadow of the Sakurajima volcano in Japan. It is made from traditional Japanese spirit shōchū. During the redistillation of high-quality shōchū, a smoother gin is created, leaving a light sensation in the mouth.
It contains 11 different botanicals, including the peels of Japanese citrus yuzu and mikan, cherry leaves and blossoms, and Sansho pepper, making it a manifestation of the Japanese landscape and its flavors.
The taste of this gin is rich with juniper, pine, mint, herbs, coriander, and bright citrus. The bottles are filled with an alcohol content of 40% and the bottle volume is 0.7 l.
We recommend serving the gin over ice, either neat or in various mixed drinks.
