Known forcocktail barShinjukuartisanunique
An extraordinary farm-to-glass cocktail bar where owner-bartender Hiroyasu Kayama grows many of his own herbs and botanicals and even distills his own spirits on-site. The drinks are deeply personal, often incorporating absinthe, bitters, and rare ingredients in ways you won't find elsewhere. The bar is tiny and very much a one-man show, so patience and an open mind are essential.
