Tasting Notes

Nose

Delicate grassy Sencha rising above gentle citrus — classic juniper-led gin aromas softened by Japanese tea character, summer freshness

Palate

Layered umami from Gyokuro tea — one of Japan's most prized teas delivering deep richness, balanced by light floral elegance and lift, the two teas creating a palate journey from grassy freshness to savoury depth

Finish

Bright yuzu with subtle sansho spice — lingering green tea notes creating the cooling sensation that Noryo promises, refreshing and tranquil like a Japanese summer evening by the river

Expert Review

8/10

Suntory's second limited Roku edition — celebrating Noryo, the Japanese tradition of seeking coolness in summer. Sencha for grassy freshness and Gyokuro for deep umami richness. Yuzu brightness and sansho spice. Two peak-flavour Japanese teas elevated to define a gin. Summer tranquility by the water.
