Spicy Winter Vibes - Hajime no Mori

When spicy depth meets forest aromas, the result is a spicy martini variation for special moments. The "Hajime no Mori" takes you on a fascinatingly intense walk through a Japanese forest – warm, complex, and intriguingly multi-layered. Perfect for cold winter days, open fires, and anyone who loves Japanese flavors.

Book your very special excursion into the world of Japanese spirits and sake. At each tasting, we present various distillates from different regions, from the southern tropical islands to the snowy mountains of northern Japan.

Japan tips

Japan and its 8 regions – a journey through diversity, contrasts, and culture

Japan is a country of contrasts: ultra-modern metropolises and centuries-old temples, snow-capped mountains and subtropical islands, tranquil Zen gardens and vibrant neon districts. To truly understand Japan, one should not view the country as a single entity, but rather as a mosaic of eight very different regions. Each of them has its own character, its own traditions—and its own unique highlights. A journey through Japan's regions is a journey through history, nature, and the present all at once.

Between light and paper - Japan's lanterns and the silent magic of light

If you stroll through the narrow streets of Kyoto at night, you might hear the soft click of bicycle chains, the distant clink of dishes, and hanging above it all: round, cylindrical, sometimes oval shapes made of bamboo and paper that seem so delicate that you wonder how they can even withstand the wind and rain. These lanterns are called chochin and they are so commonplace in Japan that although they are everywhere, you rarely really notice them.
