Salon de Shimaji, Katsuhiko Shimaji's Quote of the Week
2015.02.02 update

Welcome to Salon de Shimaji



Many people come to Salon de Shimaji from far away just to meet Ms. Shimaji.
For first-time visitors, I recommend the spicy highball.

This time, I'll show you how to make it.

Shimaji's spicy highball starts by pouring a little less than a single serving of Talisker 10 Year Old into a glass filled with ice, and then gently topping it with Suntory The Premium Soda from Yamazaki.

And you absolutely must not stir it.

Next, use a pepper mill to add smoked black pepper, pushing it 3 to 5 times from above.


"The black pepper gives a tingling sensation to the mucous membranes of the mouth and throat, waking up the whole body and preparing it for drinking. It's the recommended first drink at Salon de Shimaji."

What kind of conversations take place at Salon de Shimaji?
Next week, we'll share some interesting topics from the discussion.

*Drinking alcohol is prohibited by law for those under 20 years of age.
*Please refrain from drinking alcohol or participating in tastings if you are driving a vehicle (including motorcycles and cars) or are underage.
