Discover the Stellar Ume Shaved Ice at The CHOYA Ginza BAR

As summer approaches, an exciting new treat awaits at The CHOYA Ginza BAR, renowned for its umeshu cocktails. Starting from June 6 and lasting until October 5, the bar invites you to indulge in their freshly launched "Stellar Ume Shaved Ice," a dessert designed to encapsulate the enchanting summer nights filled with stars.

A Delight for the Senses

Crafted for those sizzling summer evenings when fatigue tends to linger, the Star Shaved Ice promises a refreshing escape as you relish the cosmos. Imagine layers of exquisite ingredients—all celebrating the rich flavors of ume.

At the heart of this dessert is a jelly layer made from ripe ume and cranberries, complemented by a vibrant butterfly pea and blueberry fruit ice layer, and crowned with fluffy ume matcha milk espuma. As an artistic touch, star-shaped ramune and ume crackers adorn the dish, while a single piece of frozen ripe Nanko ume adds a burst of flavor.

One of the highlights of the presentation is the three original umeshu syrups included with the dessert, which allow for a unique tasting experience. Drizzling the syrup over the icy sweet treat transforms the colors in front of your eyes, evoking the shimmer of shooting stars across the night sky.

Original Umeshu Syrups to Choose From

1. Lemon Ume: A refreshing syrup combining Kishu Nanko umeshu and lemon for a sharp and zesty finish.
2. Supreme Ume: This syrup is a rich blend featuring 100% pure, ripe Nanko ume puree, finished with premium umeshu, resulting in an aromatic experience.
3. Pineapple Strawberry Ume: A tropical delight merging juicy pineapple and strawberries, perfectly complementing the ume's inherent flavors.

Afternoon Tea & High Tea Experience

The Stellar Ume Shaved Ice can be selected as a dessert option in the exclusive "Ume Afternoon Tea & High Tea" course. Enjoy over 100 varieties of drinks, including umeshu cocktails and non-alcoholic options, all available for a delightful two-and-a-half hour all-you-can-drink session.
