01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

Sipping from a glass while taking in the bottles arrayed across the back bar in gentle, low lighting is one of the distinct pleasures of a dedicated bar. True to its name, Yushima Yamazaki stocks a wide lineup of whiskies, spanning coveted domestic labels such as Yamazaki, Hakushu, and Hibiki, alongside Scotch and Irish staples like The Macallan, Bowmore, Laphroaig, and Connemara. Guests can sample unfamiliar pours by the single shot or keep an entire bottle for repeated visits.

Options at the counter cater to various drinking moods, whether sipping Yamazaki 12 Year Old or Hibiki Blender's Choice neat or on the rocks, or ordering a tasting flight to compare subtle nuances. Beyond whisky, the bar offers beer, cocktails, and wine, supported by a selection of bar snacks and food. Some drop in earlier in the evening to enjoy a drink alongside a light meal.

Centered around an intimate counter, the space suits solo guests looking for an understated drink as naturally as two companions sharing quiet conversation. A cover charge applies upon entry, making way for soft-spoken service and an evening drawn out over thoughtful pours in Yushima.
