At Hotel Capsule, the main bar at Hotel New Otani, Tokyo, until April 28, 2020 (Tuesday), the world’s largest bartender competition is ranked 5th in the World Class 2019 Global Final. We will offer a cocktail “Sakura Fizz” that won the championship Johnny Walker category by the award-winning bartender Hiroki Yoshida.
For cocktail “Sakura Fizz”, bartender Hiroki Yoshida of Hotel New Otani “Bar Capri” won the Johnny Walker category of the world’s largest bartender competition “World Class Global Final 2019” held in Scotland in September 2019 At the time, a cocktail actually made. Under the concept of “cocktails that can be toasted with everyone in the cherry blossoms”, not only use orange peel, which would otherwise be discarded, as part of the recipe, and use food waste as an effective resource, We hope that the bamboo tumbler, which can be used repeatedly even in the cherry blossom scene and is good for the environment, will take root.
The base is Scotch Whiskey Johnny Walker Black. Pull out the fruity taste firmly and use homemade cherry syrup and shiso to enhance the taste of cherry blossoms. Oil “Oleossaccharum” obtained by soaking orange peel in sugar, several types of flower water, lemon juice, etc. are added to create a fresh fizz with a complex aroma.
The world’s largest bartender competition “World Class” sponsored by Diageo UK, with the concept of “Continuing to create the best customer experience with bartenders”. In the 11th year, last year, more than 10,000 bartenders from 55 countries entered, and 55 bartenders who broke through qualifying tournaments held in each country and region competed in six types of challenges (competitions). The final was held in Glasgow, Scotland.

Hoshinoya Tokyo, a Japanese-style inn located in Otemachi, Tokyo, will again this year host the “New Year Kabuki Stay” program, a two-day and one-night stay from January 5 to 26, 2024.
For people living in Edo, one of their New Year’s pleasures was to watch Kabuki, and it was a chic way to spend the New Year. Theatrical teahouses supported this way of enjoying Kabuki. In addition to arranging tickets to the theater, the teahouses delighted patrons by providing a complete range of services, including plot notes, tea, sweets, makunouchi box lunches, and snacks and drinks (*1). Hoshinoya Tokyo offers a stay to celebrate the New Year with hospitality similar to the theatrical teahouses of the time.
