Event Overview

Every day, restaurants are the lifeblood of local communities. Not simply in their product offerings, but also in how they support so many of our friends and family with stable employment. With many having to close their doors and send employees home without paychecks, it's now our turn to step up and serve those who have loyally served us for years.

On Thursday, May 21st, join TYKU Sake + Shakou Restaurants for a 45-minute Virtual Sushi rolling class while enjoying TYKU sake cocktails. Chef’s from Shakou sushi will be leading you through the experience in rolling some of their signature rolls and how to make your favorite TYKU Sake cocktail pairings.

TYKU is the leader in Premium Sake with the most awarded, best tasting and fastest growing Japanese Sake in the U.S. Made from only 4 all-natural ingredients – premium non-GMO rice, pure soft water, yeast, and handmade koji – making it one of the purest alcoholic beverages on the planet.

The clean alternative to wine with 12-15% alcohol by volume, but Gluten-free, Sulfite-free, Tannin-free, and five times less acidity than wine. Handcrafted and imported from the famed Umenoyado Brewery right in the heart of Nara, Japan.

The first 20 to donate to this class will receive gift packages with giveaways from our awesome partners in addition to some TYKU Sake & STRENGTH IN THE CITY items. The STRENGTH IN THE CITY team will safely distribute or ship gift bags based on recommendations by the CDC.

100% of the donations will go back to support Shakou Restaurants to aid in staff and urgent expenses to aid in keeping their restaurants to stay open during this time.
