<h1>SAKURA FESTIVAL AT MAMASAAN</h1>

<p class="sakura-subtitle">
  Born in Japan. Reimagined at Mamasaan Bondi.
</p>

<p class="sakura-lead">
  To celebrate the arrival of spring in the Japanese traditional way,
  the spirit of Sakura (Cherry Blossoms) comes alive at Mamasaan.
</p>

<p>
  During this week at Mamasaan, Japanese inspiration meets Sydney spring,
  Asian fusion flavours meet unexpected pairings, and every evening unfolds
  a little differently. From beautifully crafted Roku Gin cocktails and
  Suntory Whisky to food, laughter, music and shared moments — Sakura is
  reimagined, the Mamasaan way.
</p>

<p>
  At the heart of the celebration are two unmistakably Japanese characters —
  <strong>Roku Gin &amp; Suntory Whisky</strong> — poured, mixed and paired
  with Mamasaan's playful fusion flavours.
