Jarsh Liu
@jarshliu
Head Bartender at MOKU Sydney, leading cocktail menu development and design. His approach blends Japanese techniques with Australian ingredients, shaped by experience in Asian-style cocktails, Chinese spirits, and early training in Taiwan’s craft beer and tap-cocktail scene. The focus is on clarity, balance, texture, and fast-evolving flavour.

Aaron Hou
@aaron__hou
Creative behind MOKU and Linla (Sydney), with a background across bars, global spirits brands, and guest-experience design. Aaron brings a concept-led, flavour-driven style influenced by Asian flavours and Japanese-inspired structure.

The Food
For this night only, cocktails will be paired with a Japanese yakitori-style menu, created in collaboration with MOKU. The food reflects MOKU’s Japanese-fusion restaurant identity, designed to match the pacing, balance, and structure of the drinks.
