Expansive space. A bit disappointed with the cocktails but then again it’s not why you visit a place like this.

The selection of whiskeys is awesome and service is good too. Some food service is also available. Whiskeys will generally cost around 1500-2000 yen per glass and upwards. It’s a good place to try some unique whiskeys you couldn’t find in other stores. I tried the Shizuoka Prologue W, which was great. Loved the atmosphere here too. Recommended.

Too bad I'm not a whisky fan but they had plenty of other options available and smoked food. Interior was also beautiful.

The prices range from decent to extravagant. They don’t have every whiskey you may want but they have more than enough for you to find something you’ll love. I asked for a recommendation and got a pretty glass of whiskey. Not sure about English speaking staff but the menu was in English/Japanese. If you have any questions you may need to be able speak a little. This place is fun for a drink but slightly hard to find and there isn’t much to do in the area if you go later on at night (but Shibuya is an easy walk downhill from here). I’d recommend a reservation if you want a seat that isn’t at the bar, but I went at night on the weekend so maybe it will be less crowded on weekdays or at an earlier time. One thing to consider: They allow smoking inside and many people in Japan smoke, so be ready for a smoky atmosphere if you’re unlucky and end up being surrounded by tables of hard drinking business men. Just a heads up.

Too many whiskey bottles to pick from maybe a tasting set is a good idea. Friends enjoyed the Irish coffee and I enjoyed a four cask Ardberg
