Big in Japan

There are already about 1000 reasons to visit Japan, crazy chaotic in-your-face advertising people media mayhem mish-mash whiskey vending machines cyper punk technology, 5.6.7.8.s, pod hotels, samurais, Mt. Fuji, and of course idiosyncratic Japanese package design....compelling, yes, but not as much as the insane world of Japanese Bartending. Like everything they do, cocktail afficiandos are serious, the have their own "Hard Shake" and let me just say, "its hard!!!" Bartenders will use and ice pick to carve a single solid ball of ice to cool your whiskey, another local obession, there are a number of swank cocktail lounges popping up all over poplated by the most skilled of bar-keeps..but this man, the mad genius of cool..like Dino n Frank rolled into one...take a look at "Mr Hoshi's Dry Martini.."
