2. CELEBRATE THE SPRING HARVESTS WITH ROKU GIN
When: 3 April to 26 May 2023
Where: Penrose, Coley, Concubine, Jann KL, Bar Terumi, Rakh
To celebrate the arrival of spring, Roku Gin has teamed up with six bars across the Klang Valley to craft a medley of cocktails concocted with Roku Gin and the freshest spring ingredients sourced in their “shun”. For the unacquainted, “shun” refers to the Japanese celebration of seasonal ingredients harvested at their peak—when they produce the most flavour. Each of the six bars will bring to life unique ingredients through their Roku Spring cocktail creations: Penrose (grapefruit), Coley (sakura), Concubine (apricot), Jann KL (kumquat), Bar Terumi (plum), and Rakh (honeydew). These cocktails will be available for a limited time only at the respective bars this spring, so drop by for a taste while you can!
