Celebrating Spring in a sip
Spring has sprung, and what better way to celebrate than with a taste of Japan’s most beautiful season? The Roku Gin family just welcomed a new member, the Roku Sakura Bloom Edition, a limited-edition gin that captures the essence of Japanese springtime in every delightful sip.
Each bottle is a tribute to the Hanami Festival, a beloved Japanese tradition where people gather to admire the fleeting beauty of cherry blossoms. And the taste? Imagine the delicate sweetness of sakura flowers, perfectly balanced with a hint of floral perfume and a touch of salty undertone – it’s like spring has bloomed right on your tongue.
Roku Gin prides itself on using only the finest ingredients, and the Sakura Bloom Edition is no exception. Crafted with meticulous care by master distillers, this gin blends six botanicals to create a complex yet refreshing taste. It’s perfect on its own, but if you’re feeling a little adventurous, there are endless cocktail possibilities!
Speaking of cocktails, to celebrate the launch, Roku Gin has collaborated with Lilin + Co to create a beautiful candle that captures the same essence of the Sakura Bloom Edition. Light the candle, pour yourself a gin and tonic (Roku recommends a 1:3 ratio of gin to tonic water!), and let the delightful aroma of cherry blossoms transport you to a Japanese springtime paradise. The Lilin + Co x Roku Sakura Bloom Edition Candle is available for a limited time only, so grab one while you can!
