Japanese botanical gin garden at OXO Tower Bar London

The House of Suntory is launching a Japanese inspired gin garden on the OXO Tower Bar Terrace, offering discerning drinkers the opportunity to enjoy an exclusive range of Roku gin cocktails overlooking the South Bank this summer.

The immersive outdoor terrace space - located on the eighth floor at the OXO Tower Restaurant, Bar and Brasserie - showcases a touch of far eastern elegance through the physical embodiment of the unique flavours found within every bottle of Roku gin.

The garden installation will transport Londoners to the serene heart of Osaka, amidst a range of bespoke terrariums and a foliage wall displaying the six botanicals found within the gin. As the heady aromas of sakura flower, sakura leaf, yuzu peel, sencha tea, gyokuro tea and sansho pepper fill the air, the stunning views and atmosphere are enriched to create a perfect oasis of calm in which to enjoy a drink in the heart of the city.

Taking inspiration from the liquid, the painstaking craftsmanship of the House of Suntory’s artisan distillers and the name Roku - which means 'six' in Japanese - a range of six cocktails have been exclusively created in partnership with Paulius Patumsis, Bar Manager at OXO Tower Restaurant, Bar and Brasserie.

What's more, a selection of Japanese inspired bar snacks have been created by Keir Barry, Head Chef at OXO Tower Brasserie with Roku in mind, offering a harmonious match with the range of cocktails. Menu highlights include Gyoza dumplings, Inu Norrie tempura prawns and fried squid with pickled cucumbers with goma dressing.
