Experience the Essence of Japan with Matcha Grace

The world of cocktails continues to evolve, and a new offering from The CHOYA Ginza Bar is turning heads. From April 23 to June 17, 2026, guests can indulge in the exquisite MATCHA GRACE cocktail—a harmonious blend of Japan's most celebrated flavors: ripe Nanko plums and high-quality matcha.

In this unique creation, the base is a premium plum wine made entirely from 100% Nanko plums, sourced from the Kishu region. The cocktail elevates this traditional ingredient by incorporating a rich matcha syrup and organic matcha, creating a refreshing yet indulgent drink that is perfect for the season.

What makes MATCHA GRACE particularly special is its layered presentation. It begins with the vibrant plum matcha syrup and plum wine, topped with soda for a fizzy kick. A creamy yogurt espuma crowns the cocktail, offering a delightful contrast to the deep flavors below. Adding to its appeal is a luscious piece of bracken-starch jelly that captures the essence of plum and matcha, while a slice of grapefruit delicately rests on top, providing a hint of tartness. To finish, a scoop of matcha ice cream, drizzled with more plum matcha syrup, and a crispy plum monaka biscuit complete this extraordinary drink.

As the spring season unfolds in Japan, new tea leaves sprout and plums begin to bear fruit. This cocktail celebrates the richness of Japan's harvest and the beauty of nature, perfectly encapsulated in its name, GRACE, which signifies gratitude for these seasonal blessings. The upcoming months of April and May symbolize abundance, making this the perfect time to savor the depth of MATCHA GRACE.

In addition to this enticing cocktail, The CHOYA Ginza Bar offers a variety of options to cater to every preference. Guests can choose between alcoholic and non-alcoholic versions of MATCHA GRACE. Pair it with an array of exquisite food options designed to complement the flavors of plum wine.

The menu features a delightful 梅づくしアフタヌーンティー&ハイティー (Plum Afternoon Tea & High Tea), where diners can enjoy over 100 different drinks for a fixed duration of 2 hours and 30 minutes, with last orders taken 30 minutes before the end. Highlights include a flight set of 3 to 5 varieties of plum wines, alongside a selection of savory options like plum potato salad and plum cheese tart, ensuring an unforgettable culinary experience. Warm drinks, including coffee and tea, are also included, perfect for socializing in a chic, relaxed environment.

The CHOYA Ginza Bar serves as a haven for those seeking a casual outing after shopping or a leisurely gathering with friends and family. Whether planning a late lunch or enjoying a relaxing café break, this space welcomes guests to unwind.
