Mother’s Day is just around the corner, and mothers truly deserve the world! Why not spoil your mother with a limited edition, curated bottle of Roku Japanese Gin, beautifully packaged using a traditional Japanese gift-wrapping method – furoshiki – in an eco-friendly silk string bag with eye catching floral prints? Making it not only one of its kind this year but also the perfect gift for mom.
Roku, translating to the word ‘six’ in Japanese, is a crafted gin created with six botanicals sourced from Japan. These high-quality botanicals, harvested from the best growing areas in Japan each season, include sencha and gyokuro teas, celebrating summer, as well as the Sakura flower and leaf, which bloom in spring. Showcasing the unique flavours Japan produces in autumn, Sansho pepper adds a unique taste, as well as the peel of yuzu fruit, which finishes off the harmonious flavours of Roku Japanese Gin and represents the winter botanical.
While flowers and chocolates are a fan favourite for Mother’s Day, why not be adventurous, and give the gift of exploration into the seasons of Japan, with an excellent gin for exploring a new cocktail territory.
Roku Japanese Gin can also be enjoyed on the rocks or in a Japanese Gin & Tonic. Prepared with extra care, the Roku Japanese Gin & Tonic can be served with ice and slices of ginger to complement the refreshing and citrus top notes of yuzu – the perfect touch to make your mom feel extra special.
Roku Japanese Gin is available at a recommended retail price of R380 in major retailers nationally; Makro, Pick n Pay, Checkers, and selected TOPS at Spar. You can also order online through Takealot, Norman Goodfellows and others.
