Shaker Industry Partners

Quality drinks require quality ingredients and equipment. Shaker is partnered with industry-leading brands to bring the best to our students and clients.

Every Detail Matters

Many elements go into making the perfect drink—some of them before you even start to mix. From having sparkling-clean glassware, to a good supply of quality ice, to having the best spirits, mixers, syrups and purees; every detail is important. Shaker are proud to partner with the best in the business to make sure these details are perfect during our classes and events.

Our Industry Partners

Every time you mix a drink at Shaker BarSchool you will be pouring from a range of quality house & premium pours as well as using some of the best bar equipment currently available. Here are some of the great brands we use at the school.

Socks Premium Cocktail Syrups

The company was founded on a simple principle, to be against the norm (just like the owner's inability to wear the same color socks at any one point in time) Our mission: To supply our clients with a premium handcrafted cocktail syrup through a bartender’s eye, hence our motto. By bartenders for bartenders. Discover the essence of South African craft in every pour with Socks Premium Cocktail Syrups.

What Our Clients Have To Say

This is such a fantastic course. I loved every minute and the instructors are so knowledgeable. I especially loved the practical sessions where we got to serve in an actual bar environment. I am looking forward to putting my skills to the test.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely one of the best places to be. The people are friendly, welcoming and will drive you to your full potential... I definitely recommend the 5 day international bartender course (IBC) and definitely WSET with Lungi, one of the best teachers I've had while doing a course. I would come back and try the Barista course and other courses as well.
