SP10 Roku Minori Gin

limited seasonal expression from Roku, Minori Select Edition builds on the brand's signature six-botanical foundation with an added layer of fruit-forward character. Arriving roughly seven years after the original Roku launch, this special release brings a more fruit-forward take on the line, timed to a spring seasonal harvest. Alongside the traditional botanicals of yuzu peel, sakura flower and leaf, green tea, and sansho pepper, Minori Select layers in Japanese melon, white peach, and ume plum for a softer, fruit-driven profile that still keeps the clarity and balance expected of a premium dry gin. Think ripe melon, juicy white peach, tart plum skin, and a bright citrus lift from yuzu — a gin that leans playful and orchard-fresh while still carrying Roku's signature silkiness.

ABOUT THE NAME
Minori is a Japanese term that speaks not just to the ripening of fruit, but to the reward that comes from patience, nature, and time — a fitting name for a release built around ingredients harvested at their exact moment of peak ripeness. The philosophy echoes Roku's broader devotion to shun, the Japanese practice of honoring seasonality by savoring ingredients at their freshest. Like the original expression, the Minori bottle carries forward the six-sided design that reflects the brand's six core botanicals.
