Celebrate Valentine's Day with a Unique Coffee Experience
This Valentine's Day season, The Prince Gallery Tokyo Kioicho and UCC Coffee Co., Ltd. have joined forces to create an extraordinary menu that marries innovative coffee culture with exquisite cocktails. Available from January 15 to February 14, 2026, guests can indulge in specially crafted cocktails at the hotel's luxurious Sky Gallery Lounge Levita and the authentic bar, The Bar illumiid.
UCC's YOINED, described as Japan's first 'non-drinkable coffee,' elevates the drinking experience by enabling consumers to enjoy the deep aromas and flavors associated with coffee without actual brewing. This unique blend emerged from dedicated research aimed at enhancing the sensation of coffee, taking over 20 years to develop. The result is a sumptuous experience for coffee enthusiasts, and this Valentine's collaboration utilizes YOINED to showcase its aromatic potential in cocktail form.
Innovative Cocktail Pairings
The cocktails pair perfectly with YOINED to deliver a sensory journey through flavor and aroma. Two signature cocktails have been designed by skilled bartenders and UCC’s coffee academy instructors, featuring:
1.
Truffevardier Pairing with YOINED (Guatemala)
Produced by the bartenders of The Prince Gallery Tokyo Kioicho, this cocktail twists the classic bourbon base by combining Macallan 12-year with Amaro. Savor the luxurious notes of orange, caramel, and nuts, harmoniously paired with YOINED's earthy aroma. Priced at ¥3,600, it embodies a refined cocktail experience that captures the sophistication of both YOINED and the hotel.
2.
ORIGIN Pairing with YOINED (Colombia)
Crafted by Katuro Doi of the UCC Coffee Academy, this cocktail returns to the roots of coffee as a fruit. Highlighting the delicate and complex aromas derived from the fruit, this drink is built upon the unique sake 'Sanuki Claudi.' It encapsulates memories from farm to cup with a perfect balance of flavors, finished with smoky notes to accentuate the coffee essence. This delectable drink is also available for ¥3,600.
Gallery Espresso Martini: A New Classic
A hallmark of this collaboration is the
Gallery Espresso Martini, a modern twist that brings Japan's traditional ingredients and contemporary styles into a single glass. Utilizing UCC's luxurious coffee brand
Largo, this innovative espresso martini shifts from vodka to a higher-proof sweet potato shochu, blended with black syrup for a distinct flavor profile that stands apart from ordinary espresso martinis. Priced at ¥3,200, it's a concoction designed for those seeking a richer coffee experience.
The Unique Venue: An Experience to Remember
Nestled on the 35th floor, the
Sky Gallery Lounge Levita offers an ethereal atmosphere with breathtaking views of the city skyline framed by stunning glass art inspired by cascading waterfalls. In contrast,
The Bar illumiid provides an intimate and sophisticated setting that perfectly compliments the cocktail experience, inviting patrons to indulge in quality drinks in an elegant environment.
