Score context

Bar Landscape in Ginza B1 is a Japanese authentic bar: whisky, fruit, carved ice, a charge that buys a nibble. Sit, talk to the stick, don't treat it like a speakeasy hunt. Prices are Ginza. The pours are why ROADBOOK still lists it.

Guest score details

What guests like

  • Ginza B1 — whisky spectrum, fruit cocktails, a 1,000-yen charge that comes with a snack.
  • Classics (G&T, Mule, Gimlet, Martini) done in the Japanese standing-bar register.
  • ROADBOOK still sends whisky people here; the room stays focused on the glass.

What to know

  • Charge plus 10% on top of ¥2,200 pours — Ginza maths.
  • Basement Sanwa Building is easy to walk past.
