SHOGUN BAR Tokyo Samurai Fun Night: Sake, Whisky & Games
Just a five-minute stroll from Ikebukuro Station’s West Exit, the hidden SHOGUN BAR invites you to slip back to Japan’s Sengoku era with an 80-minute Samurai Spirits Night. Don a lightweight yet exquisitely detailed kabuto helmet cap and haori robe—our staff will dress you and snap Instagram-worthy photos on your phone.
Enjoy all-you-can-drink access to 20 + selections, from matcha cocktails and craft beer to shochu highballs. Then compare three premium sakes in the “Warlord” flight—each named for Ieyasu, Nobunaga, or Hideyoshi—before finishing with a tasting pour of Yamazaki, Hakushu, or any Japanese single malt you fancy.
Take home a hinoki cedar masu cup engraved with a family crest as a souvenir. The experience accommodates 2 – 16 guests and runs four times nightly at a special rate ¥4,500 below the walk-in price. Join us for an only-in-Japan kanpai you won’t forget!
