Roku Gin Summer Botanicals

In case you haven’t already heard, Roku Gin recently introduced their collaboration with five luxury hotels and their respective dining establishments in Kuala Lumpur to celebrate the blissful season with a medley of mixology and gastronomic pairings.

Japan in the summertime signifies a time of sunlight and new harvests, which is also the season for tea harvesting. Sencha tea and Gyukoro tea are amongst the more popular harvests for the summer, to capture their maximum quality and flavour.

Till today, Roku is still made with Sencha and Gyokuro Tea leaves from a traditional Japanese tea house.
