Sanlucar Bar, Kagurazaka, Tokyo
The Bar was located on the top of the hill in Kagurazaka, in front of the metro station Kagurazaka.
The exterior is very exclusive, we cannot look inside the bar, like Japanese old town house, named Machiya(町家). Once we go into the bar, we will find the bar counter made from cheek wood and the nice only seven chairs and the set of table for four person. The interior looks like as the 70s Japasese mordean bar or living room. The 60s to 70s houses had the stools like this bar, like my hall in my home town.The bartender is very famous in Japan as the cocktail maestro, the name is Mr. Shinbashi. He serves with very soft talking but has some strong opinion about the cocktail and beverage in his bar.
On my visiting, I ordered a glass of whiskey, Gimlet and vodka martini. The basic cocktails are very nice. The Gimlet was served with the classical style, not classical resipe. A glass with tall foot was intaken the gimlet with ice. The taste is very nice balanced with soure, bitter and sweet, the soure was a little bit strong on the three.
The vodka martini is also nice. He made it with Finlandia and white velmot, Dolin Chambery Dry. The stearing is very controled, very dry, not wet, and smellfull of vermot. The taste was strong but the comfort and beatiful smell of vermot was running throught my nose. Normally I prefer the shaken vodka martine, sometime called Bond martini, but he showed me his thecknick of stearing.
The bar open from Tuseday to Sunday, 1400-2300. Before you reaching, I recommend you to make reservation for your seat.You will find what the real of Japanese bar is.
The bar is always crowded with the cocktail geek, then I go to Bar Kakinuma, my most favourite one.
