New: Spirits of Japan

Discover Shochu

Presented by the Government of Japan

Why not explore the rich history of Shochu, Japan's traditional distilled spirit? 


Crafted using techniques refined over centuries, Shochu is a drink steeped in heritage. Its ingredients are wonderfully diverse, but our stand shines a spotlight on three of the most iconic: sweet potato, barley, and rice. We're offering a curated tasting experience, allowing you to discover the distinctive aromas and deep, complex flavours of each variety. 


In addition, we're running hands-on cocktail workshops led by professional bartenders, where you'll get to create your own Shochu-based drinks. 


They'll also share expert tips on blending, food pairings, and the many ways to enjoy this incredibly versatile spirit.  So come by, have a taste, and find your new favourite!

DISCOVER SHOCHU AT DRINK JAPAN

Explore Shochu through two unique experiences at Drink Japan.

At the Discover Shochu tasting bar, sample three distinctive styles of

Shochu made from barley, rice and sweet potato — served both neat

and in specially created cocktails.


You can also join a free 30-minute hands-on Shochu Cocktail Workshop,

led by a Chief Mixologist at Park Hyatt London River Thames, and a Bar Manager at ROKA Shochu Lounge.


Taste three different styles of Shochu, explore their individual

characters, then create your own Shochu cocktail using the spirit and

ingredients of your choice.


*Workshop places are limited.
