Oriental Jewel
Imperial Hotel
Beefeater Dry Gin, Passion Fruit Syrup, Lemon Juice, Crème de Cassis
The Old Imperial Bar at Imperial Hotel Tokyo offers an inimitable yet subtle blend of artistry and ambiance. Its popular Oriental Jewel cocktail was created to commemorate the 90th anniversary of the Imperial Hotel’s original iteration, the iconic Wright Building, which was nicknamed the “Jewel of the Orient.”
The cocktail itself, in color, presentation, and layers of flavors, was inspired by the mural of the Wright Building that remains on the walls of the Old Imperial Bar. Tactile, endlessly fascinating pieces of the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed building’s concrete façade are on full display. The name of the drink is derived from the nickname given to the building itself: the "Jewel of the Orient."
A sprinkling of gold dust draws you closer to this glittering Tokyo gem with every sip.
