Roku Gin Sakura Pop-Up Bar

Like cherry blossom season in Japan, the Roku Gin Sakura Pop-Up Bar is here for a limited time this spring, popping up over 12 nights this September and October in a new location in Surry Hills.

Enter a world of beautiful cherry blossoms and enjoy a menu of six specially-created Roku Gin cocktails.

Each cocktail has been created with hanami in mind – the cherry blossom viewing that Japanese locals and visitors adore for a few weeks in spring every year.

From Thursday to Saturdays, book in to enjoy a Roku cocktail of your choice with a dinner bento and dessert by KOI Dessert Bar.

The hanami bento is a set meal box which is traditionally how the Japanese enjoy hanami with friends, family and co-workers under the cherry blossom trees.

Our friends at KOI are also taking inspiration from hanami to create an exclusive Roku Gin sakura dessert – exclusively available at the Roku Gin Sakura Pop-Up Bar.
