Elevate Your Cocktails with Roku Japanese Gin
The Japanese approach to gin-making is one of the keys to why Roku pairs so beautifully with cocktails like the Gin Negroni. By distilling each botanical separately and then blending them together, a perfect balance of flavours is achieved. This allows all the ingredients to shine alongside the gin, without either being overpowered.
The distinctly Japanese botanicals in Roku transform the Negroni into a completely new experience. Bitter orange peel and yuzu balance the sweetness of vermouth, elevate the gin’s flavors, and impart a unique and vibrant citrus profile to this gin cocktail.
If you’re looking to take it a step further, try using Roku Gin Sakura Bloom Edition in your next Japanese Negroni—its more floral flavor profile with a subtle salty touch can be surprising. And if you want to continue experimenting with our Japanese gin, explore other cocktails like the Roku Sakura Aperitif or the Roku Hanami Fizz.

Serving up Japanese hospitality
“Omotenashi” is a concept that embodies the warmth and thoroughness of Japanese hospitality, which not only strives to meet your present needs but also anticipates those you may have in the future.
As if Shinjiro Torii, founder of the House of Suntory and creator of Japanese whisky, had foreseen the needs of future generations, he also experimented with gin and introduced it to the Japanese market. It is thanks to his vision and the remarkable ability of the Japanese people to refine and make any concept uniquely their own that today we can enjoy a Japanese gin as extraordinary as Roku Gin, alongside exceptional Japanese whiskies and vodka.
