Biblioteca de Cócteles de Osaka Registros Akáshicos

The concept of a world memory where all phenomena, thoughts, and emotions from the beginning of time are recorded. It is said that traces of all past events are permanently etched, and all information about every existence since the birth of the universe is accumulated... A memory created by the owner SHI-TAKA (Hamaguichi) over eight years. Research was conducted at Mixology & Laboratory Bar 6696, and mass production was carried out at MIXOLOGY & FACTORY Bar GEAR, creating a library where the memories recorded in this Akashic Records can be experienced through taste, sight, and touch. Original cocktails, renowned spirits among the correct choices, classic cocktails, and the enjoyment of flair bartending through experience... 'All pleasures are here.' We hope that deep knowledge and experiences can be touched here. Owner Bartender Mixologist SHI-TAKA (Takashi Hamaguichi)

The first work introduced in this book is the Cassis Orange using fire. If you ask for a recommendation, this 'Cassiore' will definitely come up. I will confidently serve the most comparable, flashy, and sexy cocktail. The combination of rose and roasted cassis will show you a world that has never been seen before. Depending on the situation, the performance using fire may not be possible due to the bartender at that time, so please ask the staff.

Let's create the universe right in front of you. This cocktail, crafted by SHI-TAKA over the course of a year, is unlike any other. Its flavor is reminiscent of foreign ramune. After combining various ingredients, it was discovered that this flavor is the closest to the universe. Although it has special preparations, nothing harmful to the human body is used (except for alcohol...). You will be able to experience the universe.

If the twisted White Lady is a refined lady with a straight nose, then Yellow Ledy is a cute little sister figure. Be careful, as reaching out carelessly may lead to painful consequences. A beautiful rose has thorns. True to that saying, it is accompanied by roses. I hope you can overcome the sweet temptation.

A modern twist on the classic Ramos Fizz Gin Fizz, incorporating egg white into the cocktail, which centers around rum. The gentle texture of the egg white is enhanced with the aroma of vanilla, resulting in a bold cocktail... It is said that a bartender's skill is evident in a Gin Fizz, but creative ideas are also a testament to a bartender's talent. Enjoy the new era of Ramos Fizz.

An adult twist on the Moscow Mule. Using kaffir lime leaves, the taste is citrusy, and the aroma evokes sensations of sansho pepper and yuzu. While spicy, the refreshing sensation sets it apart from other Moscow Mules, creating a cocktail that feels distinctly different from the traditional Moscow Mule.

Using Earl Grey gin made by the time-traveling Earl, this Negroni has a depth of aroma. When considering the completeness of the cocktail, various arrangements of Negroni have been focused on. It is not easy to modify a work of art with over 100 years of history. After much contemplation, the original Akashic Record Negroni was born. Enjoy this Negroni full of British flavor.

The survival treasure box absinthe cocktail 'Death in the Afternoon' (Afternoon Death) with an Akashic record original twist. This is the work that first came to mind when considering the concept of cocktails from philosophy. Based on the original 'Death in the Afternoon', it has a taste reminiscent of an orchard. However, we must not forget death. To not forget death also means to 'enjoy the present'. The poison of absinthe represents death. The vitality of champagne represents life.

Yogurt created through the five senses. The idea came about when I happened to have pufferfish ovaries in front of me while eating yogurt. 'Lactic' means 'lactic acid.' When yogurt is broken down, it disperses into five flavors: fermentation, sweetness, acidity, saltiness, and lactic acid bacteria. Reconstructing these results in this cocktail. I hope you enjoy it with cream cheese blended with pickled pufferfish ovaries, and experience the refined flavor reminiscent of Greek yogurt.

A magic that adds various aromatic accents to cocktails. It has a high production effect, whether wrapped or trapped in bubbles, and is very effective for Instagram as well. When you touch the bubbles with your finger, they burst, filling the area with fragrance. Currently, new uses are being researched at the Akashic Records. Don't forget to film a video and upload it to social media when placing an order.

A modern twist on the cocktail 'Sea Breeze', which whispers of the sea and mist. This cocktail is designed to create aromatic bubbles that spread fragrance throughout the area. The presentation of the cocktail emerging from the smoke has a high visual impact and also influences the taste.

A cocktail that transforms the floral cocktail 'Cosmopolitan' blooming in the forest mansion. It has a slightly higher alcohol content and a noticeable alcohol flavor, but thanks to the effects of elderflower, it feels mild and creates a noble and elegant aroma. A captivating presentation trapped in a flower-like glass.

Incorporating homemade Earl Grey into the Earl's perfume cocktail 'Valencia', it has been crafted into a cohesive cocktail. Enjoy the marriage of the fragrance bubbles and Earl Grey.

A Mexican-style Japanese green tea cocktail that combines gyokuro and tequila, creating an unexpected drink. I was convinced that tequila has aromas of coffee and black tea. As a result of combining various teas, I used the gyokuro 'Kinkaku' from Kyoto. A margarita like a nadeshiko.

A gin and tonic infused with gyokuro, which has the highest content of the flavor component theobromine. A gin and tonic that maximizes the essence of gyokuro. By utilizing the tea leaves, it adds a flavor that is not typically found in a gin and tonic.

I came up with this when I discovered the good compatibility between whiskey and matcha in the palace tea room. 'Tamayura' means 'the faint sound produced when magatama (curved beads) touch each other.' This name was given to signify the idea of bringing out the ingredients and resonating with each other. You will be able to enjoy the harmony of whiskey and matcha.

The astringency of a certain scientific super-blended tea has been completely removed using a rotary evaporator, seeking clarity in flavor. By replacing the original lime of a gin rickey with orange, this creation allows you to enjoy the flavor of Earl Grey to the fullest.

Although it is a cocktail that is not commonly known in Japan, the sour style will likely become essential in the bar industry from now on. At Akashic Records, an old recipe is finished with spirits, lemon juice, sugars, and water, using egg whites to create a smooth texture. You will be able to enjoy sour mixology cocktails inspired by various elements from SHI-TAKA.

A experimental absinthe designed to be easy to drink and appeal to everyone. While creating various cocktails, I focused more on aspects such as drinkability and personal preferences, questioning the scarcity of cocktails that appeal to the masses. The beauty of cocktails lies in their variety and diversity. This cocktail exists after going through various twists and turns.

A cocktail meaning 'atmosphere' that goes beyond the stratosphere. It is an improved version of the tropical Gulf Stream, made in a sour style. The surface of the liquid features absinthe inspired by the aurora. Around the aurora, there are bitters inspired by stars. A cocktail was created that changes flavor depending on where you drink it from.

A cocktail that maximizes the flavor of golden cup passion fruit aimed at passionate women. To maintain femininity while keeping the flavor refreshing, Sichuan pepper is sprinkled on the surface. Using egg white gives it a fluffy mouthfeel. The sweet and refreshing appearance is inspired by passionate women.

A cocktail created with the idea of a beautiful drink for the masses. Unlike the Absinthe Sour Experience, it has a floral aroma but a taste reminiscent of muscat. It is likely a cocktail that no one would dislike. It was crafted with the theme of universal appeal.

Using slightly peculiar Earl Grey tea from captive young leaves, a recipe was created centered around raspberry and orange. The essence of the cocktail, including sweetness, acidity, bitterness, and aroma, has been encapsulated within. It has been refined to allow the true qualities of the cocktail to be fully appreciated.

A tangy embrace, a traditional recipe modernized, evoking a light mouthfeel, tracing a meringue-like texture and a sensation like melting snow. The definitive whisky cocktail.

A cocktail made using a technique that smokes liquid with wood chips; smoking pairs very well with proteins. It not only smooths the mouthfeel but also adds flavor, and depending on the combination, it can elevate the taste to a very noble level. The addition of smoke will likely heighten the anticipation to its peak.

A twist arrangement of the fantasy forest cocktail 'Rusty Nail'. It combines Laphroaig and Drambuie and is smoked. Research has found that when Laphroaig is combined with air and carbon dioxide, it produces sweetness (becomes mellow). By smoking it and trapping the flavors, the taste and aroma can be further enhanced.

An arranged twist on the smoked chocolate cocktail 'Alexander' loved by the king. It was conceived with the theme of molecular bonding with proteins. If the bonds between molecules are good, most cocktails will make sense. The ingredients are cognac, cocoa, and fresh cream. The cognac is a V.S.O.P aged in barrels, and the cocoa has a roasted aroma. It is clear that smoking pairs well with these ingredients, especially considering the protein content.

An arranged twist on Alice's tomato cocktail 'Bloody Mary'. Made with tomato juice, vodka, and smoked salt. Built primarily around soup gazpacho, leaning towards a cocktail. Designed to look like the character 'Mad Hatter' from 'Alice in Wonderland' and intentionally distanced from tea, reminiscent of a 'mad tea party'. Added a cute design element despite its ominous blood-red appearance.

The Carbonate Cocktail is a shaker that allows for the infusion of carbon dioxide gas into the liquid, enabling the incorporation of carbonation while shaking. It can quickly extract flavors and components from herbs and spices. This allows for what traditionally required marinating or time to be accomplished in a short period. We hope you enjoy a new fusion with spices and herbs. The ability to utilize the effects of medicinal herbs is a characteristic of this cocktail.

The ultimate masterpiece of spumoni, developed based on the original spumoni to promote digestion and improve gastrointestinal health. This cocktail not only enhances its efficacy but also significantly elevates the taste itself. The original spumoni has little carbonation and lacks refreshing qualities. It can be said that this spumoni is on a whole new level, one or two ranks above the standard. (Non-alcoholic cocktail is also possible)

Named after the 'Elixir of Immortality' known as the 'Queen of Spices'. Cardamom emits a noble fragrance. It is quite a well-known presence among spices. The gin and tonic has been compressed with CO2 and reconstructed to change its impression as a short-style cocktail. It may help with bad breath prevention, gastrointestinal improvement, sweating effects, and dieting.

A concerto of sansho and mint, combining sansho and hojicha to add an accent to the chocolate mint cocktail 'Grasshopper.' While retaining the traditional form, it incorporates CO2 gas to enhance the flavor of hojicha. The combination with sansho adds complexity and elegance, resulting in a Grasshopper that is more sophisticated than ever before.

Named after the French term for 'wild garden', it features a chai-like spice mix. While it has the approachable qualities of a milk tea incorporating black tea, milk, flowers, and spices, it also embodies the essence of chai with various spices. A noble flower that is both wild and endearing.

Spices have been an essential part of food used around the world since ancient times. One of the most famous is 'curry.' In terms of alcohol, gin is a collection of spices. In this spice cocktail, we have explored spices from various perspectives and repurposed them into cocktails. Enjoy the world of spices through the unique ideas of Akashic Records.

A variation of the Moscow Mule that goes beyond the traditional Moscow Mule. It creates a Moscow Mule that surpasses the original cocktail without using the basic ingredients of vodka, ginger ale, and lime.

The ethnic gin back Baimakrut is made with kaffir lime leaves. It is a rare fruit in Japan, but its aroma resembles yuzu and sansho, while its taste is similar to citrus fruits like mikan. The refreshing sensation is different from other gin backs, and it is crafted with a complex blend of spices to suit Japanese preferences.

This is a spiced version of the original 'Martinez', the prototype of the new century's classic martini. The spices are infused, creating a complex flavor with depth. It is very interesting to compare it with a standard Martinez.

The Yamato spirit 'Gin Lime' has been transformed, adding cardamom and shiso flavors, along with sudachi depending on the season. The alcohol content feels like around 27%, but it is very easy to drink. This is the birth of a Japanese-style 'Gin Lime' that evokes the colorful essence of Japan.

At Osaka Cocktail Library Akashic Records, we offer a variety of fresh fruit cocktails including orange, pineapple, grapefruit, and peach. The contents and prices may vary depending on the season and supply conditions, so please ask the staff for details.

Using vodka that brings out the flavor of celebrity cocktail foie gras. The popularity of Kahlua milk. While taking advantage of its drinkability and the popularity of cocktails, it eliminates the downside of being cheap, resulting in a rich Kahlua milk full of luxury. Please enjoy this stunning cocktail.

Using the blue cheese 'Flumdumbale Rum', which is a step down in sweetness from the princess's snack dolce, this is a collaboration of cheese and fruit. Considering the compatibility with cheese, it was decided to base it on a piña colada finished with dairy products and pineapple.

The challenge for this cocktail began when I thought, 'Isn't it possible to create a flavor like Chinese cuisine from the west of Chengdu?' Inspired by mapo tofu and curry, I was able to recreate an Asian-tasting flavor. The smoky flavor and Sichuan peppercorns fused together to transform into a new taste.

There are many cocktails that resemble desserts like Charlotte's Smile or chocolate. However, there are few cocktails that resemble cakes. This cocktail was inspired by eating a lemon tart. Even desserts that are commonly seen can be refreshing when transformed into cocktails. I came up with such a cocktail.

Liquid nitrogen exerts tremendous power in cocktails that use fresh fruits. Liquid nitrogen is a special liquid in a low-temperature range of minus 196 degrees Celsius. Therefore, it can cause a phenomenon similar to freeze-drying. While moisture evaporates, sugars remain, allowing the sweetness of the fruit to be maximized without being destroyed. Traditional frozen cocktails are made by blending fine ice and liquid in a mixer, which can sometimes dilute the flavor. Since liquid nitrogen does not use ice, the flavor remains intact. It achieves a mouthfeel that is unprecedented, with a softness and smoothness akin to fresh snow.

A new era frozen cocktail using seasonal fruits from Pluto, maximizing the quality of the ingredients. Enjoy the visual performance and the level of completion. This is our recommended frozen cocktail. You can choose from various fruits, so please ask the staff for details.

A Japanese-style summer shadow mojito. Replacing mint with shiso, using gin to complement the shiso instead of rum. Pursuing the essence of shiso, this style maximizes the use of shiso.

Using frozen apples and cheese from Normandy, paired with compatible apples. In traditional cocktails, the idea of using cheese was unheard of and unexpected. This is a dish that was reached through various thoughts. In creating something new, I want to craft such a dish based on theory and evidence, rather than something that seems eccentric. It is a dish of preference.

A challenge of the Akashic Records to unearth old cocktails that are not well-known in Japan and bring them back to the modern era. The good old cocktails are high in alcohol content and have a bitter taste, so few modern people prefer them, but I want you to know that cocktails from the past that can still be enjoyed are truly great.

It is said to be the prototype of the cocktail king 'Martini'. The earliest mention is in a cocktail book from 1862. It is sweeter and more complex than the current Martini, making it a completely different cocktail. I hope you enjoy the depth of its history.

A cocktail named after Mary Pickford (1892–1979), the great actress of American silent films, who was hailed as 'America's Sweetheart.' It is relatively fruity and easy to drink among vintage cocktails.

A cocktail that embodies the meaning of 'perfect.' Despite its alcohol content, it is very easy to drink due to the sweetness of honey. It maintains a delicate balance between sweetness and acidity. You can understand the meaning of 'perfect.'

During the Prohibition era, there were restrictions that prohibited drinking up to 4 miles from the port, making it impossible to drink. In such times, people would travel about 12 miles away from the port to enjoy various alcoholic beverages, which inspired this cocktail. It uses rum, cognac, and whiskey, but is very easy to drink due to its balance of acidity and sweetness.

Like the name of the world-famous antibiotic 'Penicillin', this cocktail has a flavor that suggests it might be effective. It may sound peculiar, but in reality, it uses whiskey infused with ginger and beet, making it easy to drink despite its strong alcohol content, especially when combined with honey and other ingredients.

A vintage cocktail restructured by SHI-TAKA in a modern style, tailored to the contemporary palate for easier drinking. While many traditional cocktails have a simple appearance but complex flavors, the modern versions are made easier to drink with adjusted alcohol content and added fruitiness. The future of cocktails is bright.

This is a variation of the classic martini called 'Martinez', made using a carbonated shaker and combined with various botanicals. By blending spices, it increases complexity and enhances richness while achieving a refreshing light carbonation. Recommended for those who enjoy spices and bitter flavors.

A cocktail that incorporates egg whites into the American silent film cocktail 'Mary Pickford', transforming it into a lighter and more glamorous drink. It balances sweetness and acidity, with a focus on volume and balance. The alcohol content is also moderate, making it a cocktail that appeals to a wide audience.

As the name suggests, it is the 'swaying' Twelve Mile Limit. Originally a cocktail with a high alcohol content, it has been adjusted to lower the alcohol level, allowing for more creative expression. Its freely swaying form is a symbol of freedom itself. Additionally, it carries the meaning of swaying a woman's heart. It is a cocktail that is cute and splendidly finished.

A modified version of penicillin made lighter, softened from an antibiotic to a cough suppressant. It is blended with a sweet herbal liqueur called 'Drambuie', and the base whiskey is originally from a historical medicine bottle, 'Aberlour'. Enjoy this easier-to-drink, lighter penicillin arrangement.
