Whisky fans will get the chance to try different whisky drinks at a bar for a limited time starting this summer in the Omotesando area of Tokyo’s Minato Ward.
Asahi Breweries, Ltd. and its affiliate The Nikka Whisky Distilling Co. will jointly operate The Nikka Whisky Tokyo, according to an announcement by the two companies.
The bar will open from Aug. 7 to Dec. 25 and broaden the whisky fan base by offering drinks such as cocktails in collaboration with popular bars in Japan.
The cocktails include one using Nikka’s single malt Yoichi, which is a standard at bars overseas, and regular ones with added twists created by bartenders at trendy bars.
According to Nikka, highballs and whisky mixed with water are popular ways to enjoy the drink in Japan, whereas whiskys cocktails are prevalent in drink culture in the West.
