Roku Gin

Clean, bright, fruity and floral without being too medicinal. Balanced and balanced and has a nice burn. Yep I could sip on this.

What’s the best way to kill a 3 hour flight delay at Denver terminal B airport? A pour of a local CO whiskey like Stranahan’s. What the second best way? Whatever is available at the bar that seems like worth the experiment. And that’s where this gin comes in. I gotta note though...I’m simply not a fan of gin or clear spirits...I prefer mine aged. But with that said, I was always curious of this Japanese take on gin. Wondering if it’ll be any different than the juniper forward normal ones? Well...yeah. It’s different. Herbaceous. Really can’t taste juniper. But instead I get grassy notes and green herbs. Does this make me now like gin? Nah. But I’m glad I tried it. And it makes United’s excuse for the delay of “we can’t find the pilot” a bit more palatable.
