Mixology Salon, a celebrated craft cocktail bar in Tokyo, unveils its first international location in Singapore. With a renowned reputation for blending the art of mixology with the essence of Japanese tea, Mixology Salon has captured the hearts of cocktail enthusiasts worldwide and was honoured as one of Asia’s 50 Best Bars. This illustrious Tokyo gem will transport discerning guests to a realm of refined flavours and artful mixology techniques, offering visitors outside Japan an opportunity to savour an exquisite cocktail experience.
Mixology Salon, founded by master mixologist Shuzo Nagumo, has gained international acclaim for its signature ‘tea tails,’ a distinctive concept that showcases modern mixology techniques and the artful fusion of high-quality Japanese green tea leaves such as gyokuro, oolong, and hojicha in expertly crafted cocktails. At the heart of Shuzo's philosophy lies the meticulous combination of fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs, and spices with spirits. These creations eschew conventional flavoured liqueurs, showcasing Shuzo’s commitment to crafting unique flavour profiles.
Mixology Salon arrives in Singapore with the support of GREY GOOSE, a vodka of unparalleled quality made from the best ingredients from France. The exclusive process of capturing soft winter wheat and Gensac spring water from field to bottle to distil GREY GOOSE synergises perfectly with the uncompromising techniques of Japanese tea making and Mixology Salon’s craft cocktails. This ground-breaking expansion beyond Japan marks a significant milestone, and under the skilful guidance of Shuzo’s protégé, Kaoru Takii, guests can anticipate an extraordinary experience that intertwines elegance, innovation, and the finest spirits.
The launch of Mixology Salon Singapore received the invaluable support of celebrated pastry chef Janice Wong and F&B Consultant Mika Tomiyama. A decade ago, Mika bridged the connection between Shuzo and Janice through a guest collaboration at the 2am:dessertbar, sparking the remarkable journey toward launching Mixology Salon and its exquisite tea-tails in Singapore.
Situated in the vibrant Robertson Quay, Mixology Salon Singapore welcomes guests into a charming space thoughtfully designed to create an intimate tea-time setting for just 17 people at a time. The menu features an array of innovative drinks, including the Japanese Tea Espresso Martini (S$25++), the umami version of tea in a cocktail with exclusive gyokuro infused GREY GOOSE vodka, matcha, sencha and vanilla syrup.
For those seeking a refreshing delight, the Sencha Gin & Tonic (S$22++) blends the gentle astringency of Shizuoka Sencha, with deep umami flavours of Saga Sencha infused in BOMBAY SAPPHIRE gin. Crafted with Grand Marnier, apricot liqueur, vermouth Rosso and IPA, the Iri-bancha & IPA (S$25++) cocktail offers tart and fruity notes with a profoundly smoky flavour from the Kyoto tea roasting process.
Savour the charm of Four Seams (S$26++), a savoury concoction that intertwines the harmonious blend of genmaicha with redistilled GREY GOOSE vodka and yuzu. Delicately served in a Masu cup, the drink invites guests to enjoy the captivating taste of genmaicha from one side of the cup, while on the other side a delightful interplay of miso, dashi, and cassis powder can be sipped with the drink to elevate and complement the flavour of the liquid.
Deliciously smooth, earthy and balanced - the renowned Green Tea Old Fashioned (S$26++) is a twist to the classic Old Fashioned that infuses the timeless allure of matcha with a harmonious blend of chocolate bitters, kuromitsu, vanilla bitters, bourbon and rye whiskey. Guests can choose from two carefully curated tasting menus to showcase the versatility and complexity of tea-based cocktails. For an immersive experience, the Gyokuro Cocktails Course (S$65++) offers a delightful journey through three distinct infusions of gyokuro - the epitome of Japanese green tea excellence - allowing an exploration of different flavour intensities. For the course finale, the remaining tea leaves are savoured alongside smoked oyster soy sauce, complemented with the third brew of gyokuro tea.
“We are excited to open Mixology Salon in Singapore and share our passion for tea-infused mixology,” says Shuzo Nagumo, CEO of Spirits&Sharing and creator of the Mixology Group of bars. “We would like to thank GREY GOOSE vodka for their support towards the launch, and we look forward to connecting with our guests here and discovering local spices, ingredients, and insights beyond Japan from which to craft unique flavour profiles for all to enjoy.”
